anyone use the tfs stage lll cam?

Ive heard alot of people having trouble just getting the stage 2 cam to idle...

Go with a custom cam instead of asking people who never ran a stg III if it will work. Looks like that combo has easy 10 second capability, why guess at a VERY important part of the package?

that cam would work good for that combo. but as said before there is nothing better then a custom ground cam for your motor.. as for carb.. is that 750 you have a double pumper.. meaning mechanical secondaries.. and dual inlet? that 750 depending on what jets it has.. may be to big for it.. i would say go with a 650 double pumper with mechanical secondaries..

If the cam is already in the car....and you don't have money to get a new cam.....why are you asking us how it will do? Why not get the sucker on the road and find out the fun way?

The TFIII is a good cam, the carb will like the short duration and high lift, it could make more power with a tighter LSA ( f/i rollers.. leave the pulses to the carb a little weak).. but it will work fine!! disagree on the cfm for the carb.. (well actually, this way) If it wont see higher rpm ( 4000 and up..) then the smaller 650 will be good for street driving.. but the higher the rpm and the bigger the cubes and heads.. the more power in the upper rpm ranges.. and then the bigger carb is needed!!
your combo doesnt sound like a .. go to the store .. type!! SOOoooo... the 750 CFM will rock!! Keep the jets stock.. run it a few times and then probably need to bump UP the jets a few sizes.. but run it FIRST!! Jetting is important... but dont confuse fuel to air flow!! cool??
Like the man said... run it.. have fun, and stop sweating all the small stuff that you can work out over time and drives!! It is almost impossible to get a perfect suggestion over the forums, when there is a bazillion different ways that the engine got built!! Cool??

example... Vic Jr intake?? Race only?? it will look killer but a Weiand Stealth will out power it till 4500-5000 rpm!! see what I mean??

Have fun!!

i think that carb is perfect for that setup

Tfs Iii

It will run good with your combo. Its too much with a fuel injected car unless you have a dfi setup. I had one in my 94 cobra. I had a 306 w/ tfs track heat heads ported, polished, and shaved to 54cc along w/ the trick flow pistons making near 11 to 1 comp and it still idled and bucked like crazy with a custom tuned chip. The car ran good after 3500 rpm but it was a turd below that. Way too much cam for a small engine. I have a friend with that cam in his 393 FI car and its still alot.
