BC Cams

I highly suggest you not run BC cams or valvetrain. Both their cams and their springs have been known to cause engine failures. Even if they weren't, their cams themselves aren't very good. They give you the lope you want but none of the power that goes with it. They are all noise.

Okay seriously I'm ****ing done with your ****. GTFO if you have nothing to contribute. All you do all day if bash on other peoples things, say its not good cause this or that, nothing constructive EVER. It's not even near don't put a downpipe on if you're not getting a tune status. You just hate on every little thing. I seriously DGAF if you think running HID's is a bad idea, everything is spraying the wrong direction etc etc. These were given to us by GST who use the same lobe and have shown to DOMINATE GTA. Get whatever is out of your *** and stop with the shenanigans.

Yeah he's on a crazy high horse...he's not even from the bay area and he's always butting in on these threads like people here care what he says

And most of what he posts seems to be from word of mouth (unabomber/uncle scotty type crap), not from actual experience using the products he trashes on

You might want to take a valium or 2 before you log back onto the forum. Yes, I never have anything constructive to say. That's why when I post something that might prevent someone thousands of dollars on repairs based on proven information I'm just a troll rather than someone trying to legitimately help someone else. Perhaps in the future, you might want to open your eyes beyond your ****ty sense of tunnel vision and see that almost all of my posts are made to help people.

Yes, butting into thread posting stuff to help people. I must be an awful person.

Word of mouth? Please.... You don't know what my experience is. I'm the person who originally says half the stuff that get gets regurgitated when people read my posts on NASIOC. The valvetrains, I can name 2 shops right off the top of my head that will tell you to avoid them like the plague for exactly the reasons I quoted.

That's the valvetrain only. You can call most any shop period and ask what they think of BC's cams and they will tell you to save your money.

I have to laugh that I'm getting trolled by you 2 because you are so stuck on refusing valid advice on multiple occasions because it not what you want to hear. I didn't come in here posting "y0 f4ggs, dont uz this **** becuz I said so" (that's how your posts read), I came in NICE, insulting nobody, and said exactly why. And you think Unabomber and UCS (ok, I'll give you that one) have bad attitudes?

For the record, I've even given BC references on figuring out the causes of their cams cracking in order to improve their product quality.

Ah the old "call you out on grammar" trick...aka I've got nothing else to say so I'm going to become an english professor

I don't use proper punctuation because its the internet, and you can still understand what I'm saying, but I've never substituted numbers for letters asshat

If someone wanted your opinion, they'd ask you...this thread wasnt about opinions on bc cams or valves, but you saw something you could talk **** about so you posted

Go back into the hole you recently crawled out of to start posting in a subforum that's across the country from you

I literally click "New Posts" and read the listings. I don't even pay attention to what forum it is.

And again I'm trying to help someone (god forbid...). If they don't know, why would they ask? Your logic is flawless.

You seem to be doing a very good job of it for someone who's not a troll.

Done.
