| Help me pick a cam! |
| By Anthony - 11/26/2005 11:44:17 PM; IP 68.201.3.229 |
This is a followup to my earlier post about my 390 that clatters and will not rev past 4500.
I am convinced that there is a problem in my valve train of some sort, so I am going to start from scratch. I am going to pull the heads and have the valves done, check for hardened seats, replace the springs, locks lifters, cam, and possibly the pushrods.
The car (67 Mustang GTA) is a bone stock occasionally driven car. It has stock intake, exhaust manifolds, etc. I want to keep the stock appearance, but I am hoping a "step higher" cam will warm this car up a bit. Might as well while I'm at it.
I am running an Auto trans, the convertor has been tweeked for a slightly higher stall than stock. The rear is a 3.25 traction lock. Comp ratio is not known, but assumed to be stock. Also has power brakes.
So, bear in mind I know nothing about lift, duration, and the like, but explain and I will learn. Please help me pick a cam that will work for me, but not make the car cantakerous. I do not mind a little lope, so long as I have enough vacuum for the brakes. Comp Cams, Crane, and Lunati come to mind, and I would want to buy it all as a package.
Thanks in advance!! |
