Ok I just cut my muffler off so that i could do my 1gb conversion on my car. It now sound to me like it has cams in it. The story of the car goes like this. One of my friends traded for the car out of Indiana. He had it for about a month and it jumped time on him. That is when i bought the car off him. When we were putting it back in time I pulled the valve pan cover of and saw that it had double valve springs and titanium retainers. Then I looked down through the spark plug hole and saw the pistons have SN# on the top of them and not 63DT >.

So here is a short video clip of my car idling tell me what you think.

I know the video is a little grainy but what do you all think of the 1GB rear bumper and taillights with the 1GA spoiler.
 
Yeah it does rattle now because i had to cut off the last hanger that was on the muffler.
 
I like that look alot. Im looking to do a rear conversion to my car eventually before I paint. Now after seeing yours I def. want to do it.
 
Thanks, its a pretty easy swap just took some time to get every thing lined up right. Then just had to rewire the taillights, turn signals, reverse lights and plate lights.
 
Do you all think the 1Ga spoiler looks better or do you like the small 1Gb wing looks better
 
No doubt it has cams or atleast some timing retard...Something is going on with the valve events for sure.
 
search youtube for bc 272's and your car sounds alot like that. Mine will sound like that in a month!!! I cant wait.
 
That is what i was wondering, because i had never heard one with out a muffler.

thanks
 
Why do people have to be pricks. I was asking a question because i did not know if i had cames or not.
