This cam was offered though Ford as a all around replacement for hi performance. It was an offshoot of the original 427 2-4bbl low riser cam. The difference between the two was that the Galaxie cam was ground on 114 lobe centers, and the C4-B cam was ground on 106 lobe centers. This was due to the lower octane that the Ford GT was forced to use (rules) so they dropped the compression to 10 to 1 from the original 12 to one, hence the nickname "LeMans" grind. It was ground for Ford by Holman-Moody and if im right it was ground by Larry Wallace the cam grinder there. He told me this info 30 years ago. He said that he ground these and the C8AX-D cams too. It works great in everything that I ever ran it in. |
