Hey, i am wanting to think of what mods do to a future engine. anyways, all i have been looking at is summitracing.com and steeda.com. no real reason, i just dont knwo of any other sites with large quantities of cams.
anyways, i have a couple questions and stuff.say just in theory the engine has the edelbrock performer heads 1.90/1.60 with stud rockers, mass air, 1.6 RR, forged but otherwise stock pistons (since i dont know jack about pistons). tell me what you guys are thinking what cam to use...keeping in mind that there may be a supercharger on there one day (not right away though)
ok first some questions:
-does anybody have experiences with the companies Competition Cams and Crane cams?
-is there a quality difference between the different materials and finishes?
-i see there a re hydraulic cams, roller cams, etc for the 302. WTF is the difference, and what one do i use?
- when i read some cam specs i dont understand some stuff. I was wondering if you could explain PLEASE. Arethe lift examples with 1.6 RR? For example, i see:
* Advertised duration: 292 intake/292 exhaust
* Duration at .050 in. cam lift: 244 intake/244 exhaust
* Gross valve lift: .534 in. intake/.534 in. exhaust
* Lobe separation: 110 degrees
-I want a meety cam (once again I dont care if i pass emissions as long as visibly you can't tell, which with cams I am sure you can't), but when i read the idle specs i see regular, intermediate, fair, good, and rough idle. I havent driven a stang with any other then a stock cam, so i dont know how streetworthy the rough idle cams are. I was wondering if you guys could explain this. Are rough idle cams streetworthy?
-What RPM range cam should I be looking for?
And the final is I have some camshafts in my wish list at summitracing.com and steeda.com. I was wondering if you guys could look at them and tell me stuff (keep in mind i saved hydraulic cams and roller cams because I have yet to know the difference)

Once again thanks and sorry for all the questions, but cams are probably what I understand least when it comes to the engine
