454 comp thumpr cam idle sound

[sws]

Oh man there is nothing like the sound of a cammed 454, I have a 454with the same cam in my 74 camaro and ive litterally drank a six pack sitting in a lawn chair listening to it

[Supernaut]

I love rough idles on these engines, they sound gnarly

[mr.nobody]

You know you're a gear head when you have a random ass magnet tray of nuts and bolts right behind your seat

[paulcarter]

If you got your timing and carb 100% dialed in, threw some 3" exhaust (if you don't already), and put a couple of good flowing mufflers on, this thing would sound flipping amazing. Just my opinion tho! Many props to the 3rd gen bird, love the F bodies. Awesome build!!

[crimthegrim]

Great video she sounds might have a bit to much timing just going off by ear

[-old-Forthischet]

Awesome!

I'm a fan of turbo mufflers behind the long tubes. No ridiculous droning on the highway.

I noticed you posted this 2 years ago. I just got a 7.4 454 out of a 1993 silverado. You say you didn't have to upgrade springs? I currently have a 283 in my 4door chevelle and want to swap for more cubes. But I think it would be best to cam the 454 before the swap. I'm new to cars, so doing research. You have part number? Or website with advice on my situation?
YOURS SOUNDS

Cam sounds great, that's how I want my car to sound. I'm currently working on my RV 454 and looking for a cam to install. My question is, do you need a stall converter for that cam also what size of carburetor are you using? Thans in advance

[jantienesstruyk]

Which tumper is it en how do you like the performance of the cam en which your stall speed

[chrisfernandez]

Awsome car!!. I ordered the same cam.. how did the break in go ive never broke in a flat tappet cam.. any tips

[jordanhewitt]

I'm just curious do you have power steering on this Bird and how's the front end turning any feeling of weight difference than when turning with the sbc I'm thinking of changing my motor from a 305 in my 89 to a 427 because my father had one in a 3rd gen firebird in the early 90s with a somewhat hilarious story

so the story with that bird goes like this.
his old car breaks down old AMC hornet he sells it broke for more than he pays for it looks for a 3rd gen firebird or T/A finds a guy selling the car it was his wifes car he bought it for her new it originally had a 305 she got in it one day to get groceries the engine explodes comes to find out she never put oil in it she says put a new motor in he does and she ends up being too scared to drive it so she tells him sell the car or get a new motor because it turns out he put in a built 427 BBC chevy out of his old 67 vette he used to drag race which was sitting in the corner of the shop covered

Min 08 its already starting to load up, not a fan of those cams
You need plenty of initial timing with those, set your choke up correctly. Time it, go from there. May need to fool with the IAB if youre lucky you dont . With an electric choke and dist set up right you should only need 1 1/2 pump and fire off right away while it goes to high idle
Good dual plane would certainly help...know single planes look cool but your truck will be stronger with the DP

I have the same motor out of a rv also in my c10 I was thinking of adding this cam but wasn’t sure? Your happy with it? Did it add alittle extra than the stock cam does?

[duaneschultz]

What generation or year was your 454? I’m thinking about doing something similar. How much did you like the results? Also, did you do any other work to the engine or was it just stock? Please let me know. God bless you and your family. Duane.

[ericsgarage]

looking at a thumper cam for my Buick. Are you running a vacuum booster and if so did you have any problems with low vacuum?

[tommith.]

I could swear I heard a miss. But, it sounds great.
