Hyd Roller camshaft with 114 / 116 LSA?

Post by jbickhart »

Why can't you find HR sticks with wider lobe separation? And, I'd like higher lift with short duration.

I have way too much camshaft.... i'm betting on 110 LSA with 235 duration at .050 considering the 11" idle vacuum and the way it pulls above 5000 rpm. I want something much closer to stock for a daily driver, but I have 195cc Dart Pro 1's set-up for .620 max valve lift. It would be nice to take advantage of the lift potential but retain a reasonable idle / low speed torque.

Who makes one?

Wow - suddenly I feel like I have been listening to one of them french speaking cajuns. Yes, it is english and all - but I have no idea what he just said.

Give Scott a call at CAM Research. He is the master....and will build you a custom cam for the same (or less) that you can get the off-the-shelf models.

They are local in Englewood.

I'll look into a custom cams, but I was hoping to avoid re-inventing the wheel. I have enough projects going on right now. I most likely need a Retrofit cam since I have a '71 block and I did find a few mild RF cams. Howards has an extreme torque series, it just took a lot more looking since hot rod cams are much more popular than truck stuff.....

Not reinventing anything....5 min on the phone with Scott telling him your plans and he'll have the specs done on your cam. And it will be perfectly matched to your engine and usage.....and for the same $ as off the shelf.

Another option is Woody at www.fordstrokers.com. He'll have one done up in billet for about the same $.
