RE:Comp 280 Mag

Now you're telling us something, i.e., automatic trans., pwr. brakes, these things need to be considered.

I'm looking at Comp's specs on the 280H right here....230 @ .050, that's a healthy cam for the street.

There description says "Works best in street machines with after market torque convertor, lower gears and heders. Rough idle."

What's the weight of your car? What convertor are you using? Are you ready to go for a vacuum can to accomodate your power brakes?

You say you want more noise and performance. Nothing wrong with those desires but you've got to make sure it's just not the noise your looking for or you may lower your current performance.

Comp cams beyond the 280H start to require a lot more high dollar equipment. Are you ready for that?

As for the gas in your tranny's modulator, I can say that's not a good thing. You must be running a C-6 which I've always had manifold vacuum as a source for the modulator. I hope someone else can help you more with this one.

Cams cams cams, they're such a sexy thing to mess around with but you got to be careful.

Let us know a little more about your car/equipment and I'll bet some guys'll jump in and offer you their advice/opinions.
This thread, so far...
