RE: 390 Tripower cam?

The original tri power cam that came on the 1961-62 390-406 was also used on the 1960 352-360 horse engine. It was a solid lifter design of .480 lift 228 duration @.050 tappet lift, 114 lobe separation. It was a good all around cam that would idle nice and develop good torque. For the T-bird in 1962 they had a hyraulic unique to 62 only that was rated at 340 horse with 3-2v. It spected out to .446 lift 286 duration at te valve opening and closing points, also with 114 lobe separation. I had one of those "M" birds and that cam was perfect for that wieght of a car. I could balance a nickle on the air cleaner with the engine running! There is a solid cam by TRW # TP107 that is the same specs as the hi po grind and is an excellent performer.
