April 14, 200521 yr comment_39243 20/60 - bucketloads of torque, peak power at 6500rpm 25/65 - not as much torque but still heaps, more top end, peaking at 7500rpm i don't think any other cam profiles are as good, some have differing opinions. you can use stock valve springs up to about 0.400" valvelift (rocker ratio is 1.5 stock). i've seen cams with as much as 435 thou without cylinder head mods. i guess coil bind depends on what springs you end up using. stock springs are 70lb seat pressure convert to solid lifters too :S Report
April 14, 200521 yr comment_39244 So all this cam talk... hmmm...i just want a cam that will work for me :S you have one, it's just in your 4k :wootjump: Report
April 14, 200521 yr comment_39344 I swear by the Wade 169 in a 5k. Enough grunt to get oversteer in 3rd gear coming off corners while autocrossing but enough torque to be driven easily. Still don't know why people insist on changing to solid lifters when the standard hydrolic lifters allow big revs and you don't have to adjust them :S Report
April 15, 200521 yr comment_39352 i'd actually like to do a comparison of cams, with proper dyno runs and driving experience tests. stewart swears by his camtech 609, which i think is too big. i'm going off dyno2000 results, which may or may not be accurate to a K motor Report
April 15, 200521 yr comment_39356 Still don't know why people insist on changing to solid lifters when the standard hydrolic lifters allow big revs and you don't have to adjust them :S hooray someone who agrees! Report
April 15, 200521 yr comment_39378 can you hold a hyrdo 5k at 8500rpm and not have the lifters pump up? Report
April 15, 200521 yr comment_39381 probably not but all i want is for the motor to pull up to 7500, don't need it to go any further. Report
April 16, 200521 yr comment_39495 yep they might be but i have hydros and they will be fine for what i want to do with them... plus 8500+ rpm should be well into the next gear!!! Report
April 16, 200521 yr comment_39507 don't know about 8500+rpm but I usually have the shift light on (set at arond 7500rpm) for a full motorkhana with no problems :S Report
April 16, 200521 yr comment_39517 Hopefully spin my new 5k to 9000 rpm...should be good fun :S Report
