Cam Specs

[SappySE107]

Updated with stock 3400 motor simulations for the cam specs. This might help you get an idea of what the cam does. I will simulate other modifications as well and make packages to suit the cam for each application. This was the first step.

was looking at a few of them and im leaning towards this one
1615 231 234 281 283 111 110 112 379 352 606 563

do you think it would work good with this setup
3.4 rwd pistons and head gaskets
3400 block
3400 ported topend with ls6 springs openening the cc chanmber up

Bore 3.622"
Stroke 3.307"
Head Gasket Bore 3.75"
Head Gasket Compressed Thickness .040"
Combustion Chamber Volume 36.0 cc
Piston Dome Volume 8.0 cc
Piston Deck Clearance .0095"
Displacement 3349 cc
Calculated Compression Ratio 11.56:1

Stock 3400, 3400 with stock 3500 top end, 3400 with street ported 3500 top end, and 11.5:1 compressoin 3400 with street ported 3500 top end. That should cover a wide range now. For specific applications, I will work with customers to get the right setup. I cannot possibly simulate everyone's ideas. I will try to make an easier comparison later as well as list the recommendation for each cam. This should allow me to make dynamic packages per application.

thank you. its looks like its going to make a sweet combo. cant wait to get this thing in the engine. now i need 460 bucks. i like the option for custon pushrods too. ill most likely be getting those too.

[SappySE107]

You are going to need the comp 26986 springs or some head modiciation to run that much lift. I haven't checked to see exactly when the retainer hits the valve stem seal. Might be getting close to that too.

[geldartb]

well it was either going to be that one or a better choice you could recomend. ive got ls6 springs right now if that matters.
im open to opinions for what would work good.

[SappySE107]

I wouldn't go over .539 lift and would rather only go to about .520 lift on LS6 springs. If you machined the spring seat area down, then they would be fine.

[geldartb]

didnt have anything machined down under the spring.
with that advice given the 1357 grind is looking good for lift.

Here's another question: how big of a cam can you go before you need gears and/or a converter to make it worthwhile?
I.E. Could I safely run a 1393 grind with my factory converter and 3.05 diff?

[gectek]

that one would be no prob with ur diff, it will actually give u better bottom and the dur isnt much to worry about...only higher dur like the 216 and up into the 220-230 range would i worry about gears to take up the slack in the bottom end

So.....um.....where did the cam regrinds in the store go?!?!? I was in there just now to buy my cam(1617) and they're gone!?

Yea, damnit, i was hoping to edit my post before someone replied to it. I'm an idiot LMAO.

Ordering now

[RedBird]

Well, cam is in. Hopefully i'll have a video clip of what this cam sounds like in 2-3 weeks.
