RE: C8AX-C cam
By em - 04/18/2002 9:33:58 PM; IP 198.81.16.156
My brother and I had a 4 door 68 390 Torino with the "C" cam. It had sufficient vacuum for the power brakes but it tended to lurch in gear with the stock 13 inch converter. It ran much better with a 10 inch converter and also gained close to .5 sec in the quarter. The car had a .60 over 390, F-427 Edelbrock intake with 850 DP, Hookers, "C" cam, CJ heads, 3.90 gears, and Ford adjustable rockers with stock shafts and stands and Ford CJ springs. It would have worked fine with the nonadjustable rockers. I used to run mid-high twelves at Irwindale and Orange County Raceways in the early 70's. Those were the days!!
