The hotly anticipated third and final installment to the Lunati Bootlegger cams film trilogy is available for viewing below. Through the first two installments we have seen some background and anecdotal stories of the mystery guy in the 1955 Chevy. This third and final video in the series that has done a great job launching the aggressive new camshaft line from Lunati. We recently had the chance to meet with the Lunati guys and talk about Bootlegger cams and it was pretty enlightening stuff because these cams are engineered to do a bunch more than just sound mean. There was a ton of engineering that went into the lobe profiles to make sure the outlaw spirit and sounds of the bump sticks were matched by increases in horsepower and torque.
There are a myriad of reasons we buy the parts that we do, right? Maybe it is an aesthetic look of an intake manifold that caught your eye, maybe the rumble of a particular camshaft grind, the sound produced by a muffler line, or the new breakthrough technology in an EFI setup for your hot rod. At the end of the day we all want to make our stuff run harder and faster but we also want to do it with pieces that we feel good about adding to our combos. Bootlegger is about all of those things. From the packaging to the performance, Bootlegger is a line of camshafts that has been launched like no other line in history.
We give the Lunati crew a TON of props and credit for going all out with this campaign. It has been a blast to watch and we know those cams are going to be finding their way into a lot engines in a hurry!

I think I figured it out.
The guy with the ’55 is bartering Bootlegger cams for [outlawed] bootleg R-12 refrigerant for his pre-R-134 air conditioning system.
I think hes trying to get a some money for a headliner and a decent exhaust system or hair cut.
I think that he has that there for nostalgic reasons, as a reminder of the day his father asked him to work on the car.
