“The best of both worlds” is an expression that we’ve heard a million times. Sometimes we’re not sure what it means, other times we know exactly what we’re getting. The latter describes the new Bootlegger cam from Lunati, and it combines classic musclecar attitude with today’s modern technology to give you old school performance with an edge.
Lunati took on a different spin with their new Bootlegger cams by providing a new, radical cam that provides better street manners, but still gives the performance of a 3/4 race cam.
“On the design, the Bootlegger is more like a race cam on the exhaust opening with just a little less overlap to allow some street manners,” explains Lunati engineer David Chamberlain. “The intake closing is more tucked in for the street RPM.”
Performance and street manners makes for a winning combination, and now you can enter our Lunati Bootlegger Contest to win a Bootlegger Camshaft and Lifters for your next build. All of the prizes are listed below.
Win A Bootlegger Cam And Be An Outlaw
We’ve brought you the Bootlegger Trilogy from Lunati, with the final video telling the full story: The difference between an outlaw and a criminal often comes down to who gets caught.
And now that the story has been told, it’s time for some of you outlaws to get in on the story and tell us why you need a Bootlegger camshaft from Lunati for your Ford or Chevy. If your story appeals to our judges the most, you could win the grand prize – which includes a new Bootlegger camshaft and lifter set of your choice.
Applications fit many Chevrolet and Ford small- and big-block applications, and all of the specs are on the Bootlegger camshaft spec page, with charts, videos, rpm range, lift and duration.
But there’s a catch to this, and you knew this was coming, right? You can’t just enter the contest, which runs from April 20th, 2015, through the end of May, 2015; you have to be creative – and the more creative you are the better your chances for winning the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 10 consolation prizes.
How To Enter:
- Send us an email to: Lunati Bootlegger Contest ([email protected]).
- Tell us – in 100 words or less – why you think you need a Bootlegger Camshaft.
- Include a picture of your car or engine – or both.
- Optional for bonus points: Play the part of an outlaw! Dress up as a bootlegger, make up a scene with your car or engine, be creative!
It’s that simple! You can even go to the Bootlegger website and download the mobile app to upload your mugshot poster to the MugShot Page.
