The 720 degree representation dramatically helps my understanding of the valve events. I appreciate an engineer that can speak fluent gearhead as well. Thanks for your work.
Hi Scott love the videos you’ve been posting very informative! Thank you! I’ve been struggling with getting my motor set up correctly. I’ve built a 1970 cad500 10:1 motor. Cadco fully ported heads with oversized valves,Cadco roller rockers,stock rotating assembly,Edelbrock intake,Holley 870 carb vacuum secondaries,Msd billet distributor and 6albox, Cadco 300ss (cad-3 hyd cam) IN.232 EX.232 @.050 installed straight up. With Cloyes true roller timing set. Should I have installed the cam advanced 4 degrees and what should my base and total timing be? Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏 thank you Aaron
I had a crazy idea, of putting two camsin the block, one for each bank, so the timing can be. Modified in operation LSA , having one for intake one for exhaust, but doing this , you would be Soo much better off with overhead cams, probably double overhead cams, Pete Ardeama has made ohc Chevy V8 engines, and even made engines! Him and another guy, I'd love to do that!! Maybe a v12 based on a 302 Chevy, with 4v per cylinder, and a boxer 8cylinder, basically a 5-6 litre 8cyl Subaru engine, with 6 bolts per cylinder, with about 4 of them going all the way through the block, about 20mm thread into the block, with a 12mm bolt that threads into it from the other side, forming a stud that reaches head to head, also holding the block together, the mains on some mains being 4bolt, also use the Subaru 2 journal bearings per cylinder, keep roughly the ej20 architecture, only make it like a big block version, and double the cylinders, enlarge the deck area, to allow a 4.160" bore, but start at 4.125" with 3.40" stroke, or possibly a short deck version with 4" bore, and 2.5" stroke, use direct injection and port injection, in normal light operation a lean port mix, with a direct injection just before ignition, to start the flame, a lot like idi diesel, have a small chamber area with! He plug in it, and direct injector spraying into the piston side of the chamber, possibly allowing a 12:1 on pump gas, and better milage and emissions, treat it like two flat plane 4cylinders, Sorry to ramble
Hello Scott. Been swapping parts on motors for years for more power and just now getting into how cams work with retard and advancing them. This video taught me alot about that (sweet spot) in them. When you did the 472 with the 248 duration cam did you set it straight up or something different? Would those dino numbers be similar in the 500?
Hi Scott I like your videos much appreciated. I do have a question Cadco s 205 cam is that best choice for an Eldorado 1975 120 cc I want as stock as possible but more torque. And do you have porting ideas as well. Keep it up /Tony
@@tonyedman4253 I'm not really sure which one is the 205 camshaft as he has changed how they are numbered ... But wasn't that one of the ones he listed and tested on they dyno stuff listed on cad co ?
@@tonyedman4253 I looked at cad co Dyno test and he did the 120 like in the video on stock motor and gained about 20 HP and he did the 205 but after adding an Edelbrock Intake and gained about 25 HP so if you are really trying to keep it more Cadillac smooth I would run the 120 camshaft to just gain more off idle and low rpm

Very good presentation.
Thank you very much for this. Kindly make more presintation or vedios like this
Nice representation!

Thank you for your knowledge 💪🏽
Hey Scott I enjoyed this video and would like to hear more about these cam e event's and mabey how valve size or rocker ratio affects them. Thanks
I had volume basically maxed but ok. I’d like to understand more about the 256 duration limit

I forgot changing the valves also 2.11 1.77 and the stage 3 rocker kit. Is the plan in progress. 😊
@@tonyedman4253 big valves help some .... Problem with the El Dorado is you are stuck with the stock intake manifold flow
Thank you Scott that I understand but the 205 cam wouldn't that be best choice regardless? Thank you for fast reply 👍🏻

I wish you would crank the volume up, I can't hear you on any videos,
