Cam performance

M L Struck · November 23rd, 2009, 01:11 PM

306, 195 Canfields w/2.08, victor jr, BG carb,and this cam

276 /.552 (in)

282 /.549(ex)

1.6 RR

How do you think it will perform?

93mustank · November 23rd, 2009, 01:41 PM

Where are these specs coming from? What core cam? Who designed this cam?

M L Struck · November 23rd, 2009, 03:41 PM

the specs come from the cam card. the other two questions are irrelevant.

93mustank · November 23rd, 2009, 04:08 PM

Lol irrelevant hmmm ..... This is going to be a great engine build....You pick this 20 dollar cam up at a yard sell?

I am also guessing you do now own any other of the parts listed above.

M L Struck · November 23rd, 2009, 04:36 PM

yes I own all those parts, now do you have anything useful to add or just your normal bull shit?

What core cam? ok, I give up and I'm sure everyone else does to.

93mustank · November 23rd, 2009, 05:12 PM

Its my fualt.... I should know better.

That was a stupid question.... Cam core is meaningless along with my other question "who designed this cam?"

You dont need to know any of that silly stuff....

And I was about to ask you what the the valve events were on your cam card....But that would be the third irrelivent question.

So the answer you were looking for is..... " A wow man that set up will scream, Should run 10's all day. "

I'll be the first to admit I don't know shit about cam specs and what they mean when they're doing what they're doing... but, I would like to learn so I'm going to jump in...
I'd say it wont perform... seams like you'd want more intake durration with those 2.08 valves.

lol... FML

M L Struck · November 23rd, 2009, 07:06 PM

please do tell what your talking about when you ask what core cam?

JBIGBOOTSY · November 23rd, 2009, 09:16 PM

being as you lose~30% of flow due to expansion, post valve seat. I'd say the 2.08s will benefit the motor.

As for the cam. If it is a custom grind, it will be mean as hell, and if its not, then it will be a turd, even if the specs are the same regardless of who ground it.

M L Struck · November 23rd, 2009, 10:16 PM

Can you tell me what a "cam core" is?

Burn'nRubber · November 23rd, 2009, 10:18 PM

When you are talking about cam core, are you refering to SADI or billet? Ive heard billet is the way to go. Just for added strength?
