Hammer you can definitely use the 6.1 stuff for the 210 cam. I told Marty thats what I was using and he never questioned it. They've worked great for me and i've put the engine through some sweat while datalogging and stuff.

The 6.1 stuff seems pretty strong, especially the springs.

He's changed his tune a bit then since I got mine from him almost 2 years ago then.

This latest surgery is supposed to fix the last of my mom's health problems, if so, I can get back to working full time by the end of August (assuming I can still pick up work up home) and if so, I should be able to either drop my cam in or sell it and get one that the SC will handle alone by the end of September. Then the only mod on the original list yet to do is the Torque Converter and this truck will be done!!!

You sound like you are working off of the same list that I am using.

The audio doesn't give you the full effect as you get in person, but you get the idea of what it sounds like.

On a side note, while I was making this video I noticed that my hemi tick is gone. I guess what people have said about it having something to do with the pushrods is true. My truck had a noticable tick before but now it is gone. That was a nice little bonus that I hadn't planned for.
