cam question

**boobs** · 05-11-2006, 06:53 AM

does anybody know how aggressive the cam with a DUR. @.050 218 int/ext and a .525 intake/exhaust is?? does it lope or what.. btw this is with 1.6 roller rockers and hydrollic roller cam..

can you give full cam specs please?
lope will depend on the lsa and what youre car idles at.

I have a good feeling that he is meaning 218/228 and .525/.525 @112---translation: Hotcam(LT1)

Hard lope! Sounds wicked.

hell ya thats the cam im talkin about. sry didnt tell ya it was the one in the kit.. but im getting that hotcam kit and some longtubes..

youre better off getting a 224 cam with a 112 lsa.

Honestly, I have to agree with nhraformula. If you are JUST doing the cam kit....go bigger, like above^^ You wont get much of a gain with the cam, alone.

no im getting headers and maybe a 52mm tb

No, I mean, if you get the cam without the LT4 heads and intake, the gain will not be worth the trouble. If you are JUST installing a cam with the stock heads and intake--go bigger.

o ok..

That is a pretty mild cam that sounds great. It has more bark than bite you could say. As for aggressiveness, it isn't. It has real lazy lobes and a slow ramp rate.

i'm guessing by the posts so far, it's not for the car in your avatar. if it's for a LT1 car, then i can tell you about a guy that put the whole LT4 conversion on his LT1 camaro and picked up 100 rwhp. now that's uncommon. the norm has been 70-80 rwhp.
