neonkiller Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 http://www.compcams.com/Cam_Specs/CamDetails.aspx?csid=1058&sb=1 Whats your thoughts on this? Power wise, And what would it be good for Turbo, N/A, NOS?.. I have it sitting here debating if I should keep it or use it. Mods move this if its in the wrong section.

Guest 614Streets Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Good with a turbo because it has 112 centers which keeps overlap down. Definately not the best N/A cam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Nitrous cam. You'd want a bigger intake duration than exhaust duration for a turbo cam (reverse split) or opposite plus a 114+ lobe separation for a blower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTM Brian Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 http://www.flowtechinduction.com/ Shanton, This is who you need to contact for both small block ford and LSX cams. Trust me his cams make power in a 5 liter. His cams have a unique sound and I swear I can tell by the idle and part throttle of car when someone is running his cam. I have done it time and time again. I have seen close to 400 rwhp with his cam in a 331. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qtr_pndr Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 also check out camshaft inovations best shaft i've had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rl Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 FWIW, I used to work with Jay @ Camhaft innovations, he made several cams for me. His support and followup was horrible and i wasnt THAT happy with his cams, he is very smart however. I switched to Ed @ Flowtech, do what he tells you to do. My car picked up nearly 100rwhp JUST from switching from a CI cam/valvetrain to Ed's valvetrain and cam. Additionaly there is no one cam that works best for every turbo car. There is a whole lot that goes into picking the right cam for a turbo application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1647545494 Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 over .500 lift in a 5.0 and you'll need to flycut or replace the pistons....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTM Brian Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 over .500 lift in a 5.0 and you'll need to flycut or replace the pistons....... What size are the valves in the heads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rl Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 over .500 lift in a 5.0 and you'll need to flycut or replace the pistons....... Bah, there is a lot more that goes into it than that. You can run some big cams on stock pistons depending on how it set up. Always check! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
