Coming Soon: Higher Ratio Rockers

[alerored04]

then go with a 1.8/1.7 combo. you'll gain across the board with a little more lift. no duration change, so no loss anywhere.

I think I will do that then. Is that 1.8 on the intake and 1.7 exhaust or the other way around?

All I had to do to get approved for these is to promise to replace her 95 escort with an 03 Saab 9-3 Turbo. Wonder if I will have to buy a house to get a turbo on my car. I am so jealous of her right now.

I just got spousal approval on these so I hope they come out soon. That way I car purchase before she changes her mind. I think Ill be going with the 1.7's. I want more lower end so if a combination would help me out more let me know.

the comp springs are good for that lift he has plus boost? there have been some boost cams that have a 118 LSA. I believe the LS1's cam N/A has a LSA of 117.

[gectek]

boost....needs a larger LSA esp on that big of a dur. even on a 112 that cam would lope. hard. and you would have a problem with blowing the charge out even then. a wider LSA will help keep some bottom end but that is a large cam. the lift is good. those numbers seem to be a little off though. seems kinda strange.

IMHO i would also look at the spring specs for the higher lift. and what red line you are running to. we have springs for sale that will run up to a .600 lift cam, but at a certain point we tell the .600 guys no, because rapping the spring up that high would cause some issues due to the spring pressure not being high enough.

yeah the springs are fine and you couldn't get anything close to that duration from rockers. 115 LSA? Interesting cam to say the least.

can you elaborate??

DAMN that's a pretty big cam

you definately don't need any more lift. what springs are you planning on running?

[torq455]

won't change the idle. increasing the duration about 10 degrees @.050 most likely will change your idle

[kwhauck]

tell us what they are, and we can tell you what they mean.

Im curious if this will cause the idle to change? Like erratic etc.. or will I maintain my semi smooth idle?

well that blows......but then again i really don't know what half my cam specs mean so.......
