Computer "Friendly" Cams

[skylovia]

Are there any cams out there that are "friendlier" with our stock computers? i dont have the money for a tuner device like the tweecer or PMS but i really like and want the lopey idle of a cam. Any advice?

Look into these:

Steeda #19
Crower 15511 use with 1.7 rockers
Crane 2031

i have a comp cams 306-8 it is a blower grind with a good bit of lift but has a nice idle and ran fine without any tuning , i have a chip now but it ran ok on the stock computer. you could also go with a custom cam from fti .

Do you have heads? If not you're throwing money away on a cam at this point. If you're throwing money away throw it my way I'll put it to good use . You would be better off just using 1.7 RR to give you added lift imo.

The stock cam isn't bad. Try some 1.7 roller rockers and you will get some nice lift without any idle issues.

I have the crane 2031 it is supposed to be used with 1.7 rockers too. I think it was like 170 through summit, and it works pretty good so far, u can see my stuff in the sig.

How much gain do you potential get just by going with 1.7 RR I understand less friction from the rockers, but is the additional lift worth that much more?

I'm wondering about the same question myself.

I've never personally heard an e303 but i was told that it's computer compatible and that it's a real sweetheart for sound. Gotta have 1.7's though and a 5-speed is recommended. If it was me most of the fellas here have got me totally convinced to go with an Ed Curtis stick.

If I was gonna guess I'd say 10 hp at the most.

I'm very happy with my cam but WhiteDevil did pretty good with his 2031 cam.

He put up a link to his pull in a thread I think it was yesterday.

If I can find it, I'll come back and provide the link.
