comp cams XE266HR

[fiveoho]

looking for a sound clip of this cam. if you have one or could make one, it would be GREATLY appreciated. i may do away with the TFS 2 cam and go with this one. the bottom end of this cam picks up alot sooner and should broaden my power curve ( thanks Jason @ AFR! ) on my setup . im wondering how wicked it sounds. has alot of lift


please post any sound clips and input on this cam


thanks guys

i run the crane 2021 cam.. basically the same exact came.. thing is badass.. with flows it has a slight chop to it.. so you can hear it and know its there.. but isnt like the E cam at all in amount of loping.. thing is wickedly strong.. you'll love it

If your buying that xe266 for the lope you will be disapointed but you will love the power

sounds like the cam makes great power....just not a whole lotta lope. really wish i could have the best of both worlds.

i heard my buddys 302 with the TFS 2 and it sounded freakin awesome.
course its 224/232 and 542/563.....quite a bit more duration than that comp 266.

i bet that TFS 2 would be pretty bad in a 331...

Go custom, why guess? Just match the valve springs to the cam. Your cam grinder will set you up with them. If you go stroker, go 347. Like i've said a million times to you, don't give up FREE cubes! You need more manifold especially if you go stroker, but i'm sure you know that.

quite a bit more expensive. i think im good on the manifold. the street heat will put that power down low where i want it.....everyone says trackheat but they both share the exact lower.

thanks

A custom cam is maybe $100 more than that junk comp cam you were looking at. A custom cam designed to give you the low end torque you desire will make the $100 well worth it. If you go stroker, you need more manifold. For a 302/306 you will be ok since you want a mild combo but you WILL restrict that head.

Im running that cam, and I love it. It lopes nasty at start-up but then idles smoother once the motor is warmed up. It sounds like an f cam when I first start it up. I would take a sound clip but unfortunately I crashed my car

BTW , I based my build off of a few articles from AFR and COMP's website. AFR's and the 266 make alot of streetworthy power. With a carb and 1:6's they were making upwards of 400 horse
