Just watched a old vid from my first trip to Walker Valley ORV park in NW WA , it was back in 2006 , 5 yrs ago, brought back some memorizes , It was the first trip out with the white wagon, still had the stock wore out 1.8 in it, was my first time with a locker rearend, I destroyed that clutch that day, my offroader has changed and evolved since then, also my driving style has changed, that thing was gutless, it wouldnt even make it up the gravel pit hill at the start, ONEEYE had to pull me up because I lacked power, now im running a EJ2.2 with Delta Low Tork cams and boy does it make a difference, Im thinkin of maybe keepin my 3 door coupe and turn it into my new wheeler, Ive babied it and have just kept it a road car kept the rear end open, Im thinkin Jeep cherokee axles a dana devorced transfercase and a sammy frame, I have the frame and transfercase, jeep cherokees are so cheep , especelly if the engines bad, could pick one up and use the drivelines and axles and springs, and steerin, keep the EJ in the coupe ditch the subaru axles and the 6" lift and add the jeep parts, run some 32s I have and eventuly get a set of 33s , should have low gears with the soobbie tranny, Dana transfercase behind that and the jeep axles , I know I can get some flex out them cherokee prings they run coils in the front and leafs in the rear , I like the soobie I just dont like to break and lower gears would bo cool, anyway may never happen. was fun to watch the old video, watched one from Reiter pit also from the same year, thats when I saw Noah with his silver sticker wagon just 1/2 throutle it up a long sand hill with the EJ22 I remember thats when I knew I needed to go with a EJ someday, been threw 3 of them now and wont go back for a wheeler, love the delta cams to sure makes a difference over that EA82 1.8, with the weather turnin good and sunny makes me want to hit walker again , thanks for readin Scott

G'day mate.

 

Just read your post and I'm keen to know more about these Delta Low Torque Cams. Where did you source them, are they still available and do you use the factory ECU with them?

 

Sorry if this feels like an interrogation but I'm keen to know more about them as it might be something I would consider doing with my EJ'd L series (Ruby Scoo).

 

Have you got those videos online?

 

Cheers

 

Bennie
