FRPP Hot Rod cam

[martinr69]

Does anyone with a FRPP Hot Rod cam near the Columbus Ohio area? I would like to hear one in person before i make my mind up on which cam to get.


1) FRPP Hot Rod cam
2) Com Cam Mutha Thumpr cam

 

[killr3v]

Neither. Get 127200s.

 

[martinr69]

Those are the two that I am looking at.. I like the ruff idle sound, if you have video of the 127200s then post it.

 

[killr3v]

I don't man. I don't even have cams haha.

 

[martinr69]

Yeah my buddy has the thumpr cam and it sounds good. But I can get the FRPP Hot Rod cam and 4.10 gears installed for a good price. So that's why I am looking for someone near me so I can hear what it sounds like in person besides youtube videos.



Here is my buddy's stang

 

[killr3v]

They sound good. Won't be dissappointed if you go that route. I'm gonna get some comp cams though. 127500 with ported heads.

 

[martinr69]

Yeah just videos don't do it because they sound the same ddue to pour video lol... Just wold like to hear one in person though

 

[killr3v]

Yeah I hear you. Hotrods are definitely the best sounding though.

Here's the sound of the hot rod that I like

I don't man. I don't even have cams haha.

Of course you do, other wise your engine wouldn't run.

Cams....schmams....over rated lopy sound........lol

A good install price is a nice thing but more importantly is a quality install. A shit install can fubar your motor. Keep that in mind.

I'm in Hilliard, who are you having do the work?

 

[martinr69]

I am having Pickip plus in Lewis center going to do the work. They said FRPP hot rod cam, FRPP 4.10 gears, install and dyno tune will run $2,500.... Do you have the hot rod cam?


And when I said cheap I ment to say was cheaper than the the install for the thumpr cam

 

[Stolen 98]

No I do not. Brady has done a bunch of work for a friend of mine that has a blown silverado SS and Blown H2, he's a good guy and stands behind his work.

That price is parts included right?

 

[martinr69]

Yes I am buying all my part through them.. They talked me into buying them through them since they will beable to warrenty the work and parts and not just the work if I bring in my own parts

Is this the going rate?I've never paid anybody to work on my car with the exception of dyno tuning.But that seems a bit high to me.If my math is correct I count $1000 worth of parts.That leaves $1500 for tuning and labor install.Just does'nt add up to me.

Yes this is the going rate since they will be ordering parts through Lethal performance. The parts will cost $1,152.85 and the rest will be for install and dyno tune. And brady with Pickup Plus has a very good rep for install and dyno tunes. I have called arouns and there is no other place that can do everything under one roof. Yes I can go some where and have the parts installed and get a mail order tune. But I really don't want to go that route

 

[stang72]

Sorry man.I'm an Old school guy that's too cheap too pay somebody too work on my car.Are you doing a dyno run before cams?I would be very interested to see how much the cams give you.

 

[martinr69]

I have had a dyno tune when I installed by JLT CAI since and got a bad email tune. The only thing I can remember is that I have 299 rwhp and 290 max torque. I was going to go out the Brenspeed but the price was the same as Pickup plus if I took the parts to them. The only diff is that the gas i would be using going to Brenspeed. Pickup Plus is only a 45min drive from my house

I would consider long tubes with the cams
