Post Does the name Butch Lavelle mean anything to anyone

Before anyone chimes in with "yeah, that idiot screwed up his shark royally" or "I pray for the poor bastard that got his car," be warned that I am that not-so-poor bastard. Actually, I'm probably a lucky bastard in that I've had my car for 10 months and had only one major repair I didn't bargain for. However, I am trying to track down a lot of little things that were done to this car while in his posession (suspicious hole in the records) like a so-called "performance" camshafts. I know its a long shot that anyone here might be able to help me with this, but I figured this group has a long reach, and any info or vague memories would be appreciated.

Whoa....

BTDT with the 'perfomance camshafts'. I don't know what you've got - but my car came with the same item. I swapped back to the factory cams for actually much better performance.

That's interesting, because I was looking at the Devek website where it described their 'performance' cams and, from what I understand, they would need a whole lot of other upgrades to get the full performance benefits. I'm also hoping that without those other upgrades the 'performance' camshafts won't wear out my engine faster.
