302 camshaft

[powermaxx]

what would be the best camshaft for 1600-5800 rpm i want to have lots of power at low rpms being that i am so heavy but i would also like to have a rilly lumpy idle so it sounds fast just idling

Hey dont really have anything to answer your question but you are from melfort. From Saskatoon myself, world is a small place.

Ever heard of 306motorclub? Check it out.

This is a Canadian thread so far;I'm from Brandon,MB.Low rpm power and a really lumpy idle usually don't go hand in hand.My Comp Cams 258 has a modest duration and 114 LCA (relatively wide) which gives it nice low end torque but also a smooth idle.It's operating range is roughly 1300-5300 rpm.A 264 grind might be more what you are looking for or even better get a custom grind.

Can you smell the back bacon frying??
Another Canucklehead from Vancouver here.
I want low rpm power as well.
From idle to 4000.
I am getting the Crane Powermax 2020.
It doesnt make any more power than the stock
cam overall but it brings the power down into the 1500-4000
rpm range I use in daily driving and trailer towing.
The dyno chart I read on it showed it boosting power
in that range by 30HP and 30ft/lb torque!
Doubt it will make that cool lumpy idle sound though.

By the way I was in Melfort last summer.
Got a Melfort pen from the visitors info caboose.
I actually like the prairies, just not this time of year!

A stock cam with ported stock heads,1.7 RR's and a GT-40 or Cobra intake will give you exactly what your looking for except for the lumpy idle.But you can make that up with a loud un-catted exhaust system

 

[seijirou]

You could just turn that idle down to make it sound grumbly and agitated.

i already have a loud uncatted exhaust maybe ill try turning the idle down

What mods do you have? Any track times?

 

[LB0193]

i have put on longtube headers and dual 2 1/2 exhaust with a k&n and new wires and plugs
i used a g-teck and ran a 17.8 stock i havent ran it since the mods

 

[powermaxx]

i have never taken it to a track but the g-tech is pretty accurate.

 

[90lxcoupe]

id go with the TFS stage1, but my e-cam has a nice choppy idle with my dumps

 

[powermaxx]

what is an e-cam?
an E303 by ford?

yes

 

[powermaxx]

what kind of stall should i run with an e 303 cam?

 

[powermaxx]

or does it need a stall?

what is the difference from the trick flow cam that comes with the topend kit.

im looking for 300 rwhp

 

[maverick0716]

Get the Comp Cams XE270HR.....operating range of 1800-5800....pretty much exactly what you're looking for. I have that cam and I like it a lot.

 

[powermaxx]

what does it idle like? i have heard the e-cam and i rilly like the rough idle quality.

 

[legalize420]

:Word: e-cam

 

[powermaxx]

i have also heard that the e-cam doesnt perform well in trucks. is this true?
