H/C/I is finally done and running!!!!

[WhiteDevil]

Hey guys well my Heads cam intake swap is finally done and the car is up and running. I must say that it feels way faster than it was before. I dont have any dyno numbers or track times. But they will be coming at the end of the month. The cam ended up being pretty weak its a Crane 2031 Cam that is 513in and 529ex, but that is with 1.7rr. I had cobra 1.7s which is why i got the cam but my mind went haywire because i forgot they the cobra 1.7s woulnt fit on my stud mount heads. So i went and got some crane blazer 1.6s now the lifts are only 483in and 497ex. I think thats pretty weak what do you guys think? Ive got the timing at 13 degree and the fuelpressure at 39psi. I guess ill start tuning it from there. Ill keep you guys updated with what happpens.

What's the duration? Always feels good to get driving again!! Good luck with new times!

Duration & IVO/EVO/...etc moments are what really makes the cam . Max lift isn't as important.

But changing the cam/rockers to get the max lift above .510 or .520 might justify a swap. I guess a dyno is necessary to know for sure.

Well jake the duration is 276in and 282ex. and the lsa is 112 i think. It idles a lot better than i expected. Hasnt even stalled once so far. Umm i just was looking at the car and i swear it is like almost an inch higher in the front now. Those stock heads were so heavy comparred to these ones.

 

[GTJake]

What's the duration at .05" tappet lift?

Jake

If Summit is right...:

Advertised duration: 276/282
Duration @ 0.050: 214/220
LSA: 112

I like this part: "8.5:1 CR max". Interesting.

Congrats on the install job Gotta see some good times when it's all tuned and worked out.

Yea, it was always interesting cause your car was a strong runner(ie: Good Driver that has a Clue) should be interesting to see your new track times.

I like that too Dave .

What makes a good blower cam, especially a centrifugal blower, is a lazy, revving lobe, and that's what he has. He has excessive "advertised" duration and a relatively small amount of duration at 0.050", which will allow the car to rev. The compression ratio cap indicates to me that this would probably be best suited for a blower.

But then again, what do I know...
