bordem does rule,ever since i got my 760 running it ran harder than any 760 i had drove which is quite a few.i couldnt figure out why it ran so hard or if the engine just was built extremly well but well i was bored today and decided to repaint the valve cover and polish the volvo insignia on it.and well i was taking the valve cover off i was looking at the valves and everything just to make sure everything was tight and for some reason i glansed at the cam and realized i had a k cam in it. good thing to cause i have been thinking about getting on but i guess i dont need one now.

Where did it say K? The only place it says what cam it is is at the very back end, there's a little stamped letter. On the shaft of the cam it has a bunch of raised letters and numbers, but those don't really mean anything. So you sure you're looking at the right letter?

yea i had the distributer off to and checked it with a lil mechanics mirror. yea at first i had seen a k just stamped on it so i decided to look at the back of it and was thrilled that i had a k cam in it

but isnt it so depressing when you want to put in something to make it faster and realize its already there? thats a sweet find tho.

yea it is but ahh i guess i can find another way to get a lil more power, so now my next mod most likely is going to be either some brown tops or to megasquirt it.
