This cam was custom ground by Cam Motion, this is my first time “caming” a motor. I did my homework, took notes, watched lots of RUclips and made sure I was “RUclips Certified” prior to calling them. Then I let them help me figure out what I actually wanted. I was close lol. I wanted a rowdy hot street cam. I think the answer you are looking for is because I have pretty good duration, you need the additional LSA to achieve the same overlap. I know for me until called them, I didn’t really understand overlap. I will say, I am driving the car around the bock a bit now and I love the motor characteristics so far. Hope that was what you were asking more less?
@@ironmustang look up a guy cattledog garage “cam selection using LSA” and david visard videos, listen to what they have to say on cam selection. A but late for you but these engines like tighter lsa’s
Those are great videos, I used Davids formula when I was picking parts, got 104… AFR recommended I use a 110. But remember… by car does have a supercharger. So that’s a factor I’m not smart enough to debate the intricacy’s of and … I told them I valued a chop over total power (to an extent)… then I put my trust in a company that specializes in building cams and settled on a 114. I remember rebating it with him for a bit and he explained why, but I don’t remember the complexity of his reasoning… but again, I’m liking it. This blower adds a bit of tuning complexity… I reasonably understand NA… bowers and big cams change the rules a bit. But thank you for your input. I love learning, and I’m loving the build process.
Really nice build. And clean work. Man. What main of. Oil pan. Did you use. On you engine. And. The oil pump. Boss thanks
Super close to how I am building mine! Happy to follow along and see how yours goes.
Thanks! I need to finish up a few more videos. I almost have it done but I’ve just been filming away lol.
@@ironmustang Awesome! I will keep an eye out. Good luck!
Curious what Machine Shop you went with. I am in AZ also and looking for recommendations.
I’m in CA, we have a location shop RPM machine. They are fairly popular around here. Also fair priced.
Who spec’d the cam and why such wide LSA?
