comp cams look good also
By joe - 05/05/2004 2:00:03 AM; IP 24.147.43.196
That crane 941 look nice but I was reading that once you get over .500 lift range you start "beating the daylights out of your valve train". But there are so many different opinions on this subject. I've been leaning towards some of the comp cams (255- 260 - 265 - 268) they all are in the 200-220 exh. range and stay just under .500.
I guess the choice now is to opt for a dual pattern cam or a regualar one. From what I've learned you can gain more power from a dual pattern but might lose some low end torque? My goal is too be able to "take a camaro at the light" but normal cruising otherwise. No high speed stuff. Is a dual pattern a better choice considering my 2X4 intake? Thanks
This thread, so far...
