Back when Kelron Racing Enterprises built my blown v-drive flat bottom BBC drag boat and motor they had Bill Jenkins the cam designer and grinder at Moon Equipment in Santa Fe Springs ground my cam perfectly. Made it so the cam came on a bit slow out of the hole so the boat was able to set nice and smooth without over powering it and being so uncontrollable. That sucker came on so nice and smooth you didn’t realize how quick and fast it was because it was so smooth.
I met Bill in high school because my friends dad raced with him and they were friends. The man was brilliant and a pioneer in racing & engines.
I just wanted to say thank you for the Beautiful Truck Norris cam Brian and Staff😊
Right on!
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I learned about the truck cams from Richard Holdener........My mind can't live without U-Tube info......
I am loving this content. Love the background stories and the little tidbits of knowledge that comes along with them!
Glad you enjoy it!
With hol mfg doing what theyve done, this has opened the door to honest parts businesses in USA, keep it up 👌
A whole lot of God and his grace. We're nothing without Christ, Amen Brian.
THE VERY BEST SEGMENT EVER WITH BRIAN TOOLEY! Thanks be to " THE PERFORMANCE EXPO " !!! KUDO'S GENTLEMEN!
Respectfully, Seth
Thanks!
This is a Fun Watch i just finished up putting a Truck Norris Cam in my Pontiac G8 Gt! Cant wait to start it for the first time!
Billy Godbold is my camshaft King !
That'd be good if you have Billy doing your custom cams.
Brian created the Holley systemax intake for sbf mustangs.
Which after lots of testing was a hard intake to beat. The trick flow bowl intake was the only one that worked better. We were all motor 331/363 builds back in the day running 10.40s and then 9.80s. Those were the days.
I thought he designed the entire systemax package
I went with a BTR stage 1 cam on the '04 C5 Corvette I drive daily. Based on opinions on various car forums most people recommended their cams. Specs: 223/230 .613"/.605" LSA of 115+2. Factory cam specs for the 2004 C5 are 207/196 .479"/.467" LSA of 116.
The car is an auto trans. so it works fine with the stock torque converter. Dual valve springs, titanium retainers, push rods, upgraded trunion GM rocker arms. Kooks 1 7/8" headers, catted X pipe and mid pipe all cerakoted along with some other stuff like cheap eBay cold air intake and cheap eBay cat back exhaust. HP Tuners tune for engine and auto trans. No dyno numbers yet.
Kills so far include: Highway pulls on: Nismo 370z, older turbo BMW, 4th Gen. Mustang Cobra (either earlier 320hp or later 390 hp supercharged), Charger Scat Pack. From a stop light: Subaru STi.
I'm sure I'll loose soon but so far I've been winning to cars just "rolling up" on me while cruising around, not official "meet ups" or anything.
The BTR stage 1 cam made a noticeable difference in performance. Nice lope at idle and good drivability with the automatic transmission.
If it matters, I get 18 mpg city, 27 mpg highway cruising around.
Edit: I forgot to add that the shop that did the cam and header install went with "Johnson slow leak down" lifters. They're worth it because I believe that I am getting the most lift and duration from the BTR stage 1 cam. The engine sounds like a loping sewing machine now.
Johnson Lifters for LS seem to be THE choice by everybody who's anybody who's been doing well with that platform. I've heard nothing but good from their products.
I could listen to Brian Tooley talk for days......
I really think that guy is the smartest guy out there.
DI making more power makes sense. Fuel that is port-injected into the airflow, which is at atmospheric pressure, would displace some of the air trying to get into the chamber, plus create turbulence in the flow. Fuel injected into the chamber, after all the air has entered, adds pressure to the chamber which contains the maximum amount of atmospheric air you can jam in. Volumetric efficiency would be higher because you're adding high pressure fuel to maximum air quantity, later in the cycle.
Could be wrong-as often happens-but I guess that's the mechanism by which power goes up.
Exactly
Praise Jesus that Brian recognized the Lord a d Savior! Lord bless him even more.
Wow, 100-120 hp from a stock spring BTR cam swap on a 7.3 Godzilla? That's crazy. Light boost would go a lot farther at that point.
Brian is amazing but John Bewly is a bmf on camshafts. I’m sure a lot of btr tech is his research.
I like BTR and Brian Tooley has done well with his business. Alot of people have turned to his products because others have had success using his parts. The man is very skilled in what he does. However calling BTR the camshaft king is a bit of a stretch. The real kings of performance aftermarket camshafts are those men who first began re-grinding camshafts before there was a performance aftermarket. Im talking Ed Winfield, Ed Iskenderian, Harvey Crane and others. I would even put Joe Lunati in that group. Brian is among these guys but not the king.
Not trying to throw shade just makin' a point.
Ok kids put ur learning caps on at 16:21 brian says so much info that if u dont watch it more then once u too may mis wat Brian says till around 17:42 ish
Is there a better cam design for a Ford 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel? The Stage 1 Cam has 186 IN, 195 EX, .430” IN Lift, .433 EX Lift, 107 LSA. With a 444 CI foundation with Forced Induction, I feel that 107 LSA is a bit Wide and the Endurance can be reduced to help maintain a decent Idle without sacrificing any HP or Ft LBS of TQ
I wonder who bought all the camcraft cams equipment from Hyder in elizabethton tenn
That’s a great question
Excellent interview. GODZILLA and LT. Let’s party.
Absolutely!
Yet according to Brian himself in this interview his daily driver is a Ram TRX hellcat Mopar platform. I guess my brain pictured the guy daily driving a twin turbo 1000hp Chevrolet Silverado with a truck Norris cam, LoL.
I need that for my V3!
I work in the marine industry in Austin TX. Our industry has limited options to say the least when it comes to replacement engines with power improvement over the base engines. I’d love to find out what options exist with folks like BTR for a plug and play engine swap package that’s set up for marine use. Can y’all help me find who to talk with?
I just looked for a 2004, 5.7L Hemi engine cam kit and didn't find one. Pleeze soon . .. .. .. .. .. .. .
Everyone uses Texas Speed ground cams to their specs. Every bolt,gasket,springs,push rod,cam,lifters,etc. I went to 797 performance and bought a combo kit with complete camshaft kit & headers,cats for $3300. Bought a stage 2.5 and put 441 hp to the wheels. It’s almost an exact copy of Flyin Ryan’s mark 82.
I wish they made cams for the old school sbc!!!!
Check with Mike Jones of Jones cams. He's also the moderator of speedtalk. He's literally made cams for EVERYTHING. A cam genius in my opinion.
@@rapidride2 I agree, the mainstream names often mentioned in magazines or RUclips videos might work for the brand seen on the sticker on the winning car, but it's likely Mike ground the cam.
Comp have extensive lobes get in the master catalog and see what may work for you
Was Joe falling asleep?
Gotta research a 351 cleveland with tooleys work. Its the definition of air flow
you only lean it here !!! keep Hidden Horsepower pushed to the floor board.
Right on!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Would someone tell Brian 780 hp is nothing new and the LS is a cheap windor copy.
C5z l83 swaps incoming
The man who doesn't believe that centerline doesn't matter or should I say LSAs
Because it doesnt :)
I dont think he believes in 128 either.
LSA by itself is not an important number. And the 128 formula is to generic to be valid. It does not take into account enough variables
@@BobbyBiancaniello european can manufacturers never talk about LSA , but they give you overlap which tells you much more.
@@nickevdos1330 it absolutely does
Camshaft king???? Lmao you have to be kidding me .
Camshaft king my ass
Isky is The Camshaft King
@@BackyardBeeKeepingNuevoLots of people doing better things than Ed these days.
Thank you for your knowledge and videos USA 🇺🇸 TRUMP
That guy is totally full of himself
Whats crazy is people in the US still making pushrod engines. Seriously, it is weird hearing them talk about technology advances and yet still use pushrod.
I think the reason is pushrod engines tend to make torque at lower rpms.
@@davidreed6070 torque has nothing to do with pushrods
@@chippyjohn1 no, rocker arms, valve speed.
@@chippyjohn1, you can't get the valve open as quickly without a rocker arm and with lower valve speed you have lower torque. I don't know of any other good reasons for ford to spend the R&D to go back and develop a truck engine from a clean sheet of paper. I'm not going down the road of technology because the improvements speak for themselves.
@joshfraley9451 Once again, a rocker has nothing to do with torque, and multi valve engines have variable valve timing, which is far superior. The conversation about US pushrod engines making better torque is only because they struggle to rev, making low end torque look impressive. However, it is far from impressive by modern standards. The average US pushrod engine is only about 80-85% VE while modern engines have been in the 95-105% for decades now.
TOOLEY IS FAR FAR FROM CAMSHAFT KING WHAT A JOKE AND HE KNOWS IT -- HE COULDNT MAKE HORSEPOWER IF DAVID VIZARD HIT HIM IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH IT -- HAS TOOLEY EVER ENTERED A HORSEPOWER SHOOT OUT ?? HAS HE WON CHAMPIONSHIPS HIMSELF OR WITH HIS PRODUCT ?? I REST MY CASE
Jones is camshaft king.
Back in the day (I'm 50) his cnc program on trick flow heads was bad ass. 10.41 @ 131 mph in a full weight notch back with a cage. 3200 lbs. 449 rwhp on a mustang dyno. Do that math hp per cube on a 331. We felt it had a shot at 500 rwhp on a dyno jet. Track numbers backed it up.
That's a little hyperbolic. You can dislike BTR, but to say they've never set records or won drag championships/races is horseshit. A simple Google search shows it's horseshit. Other cam and head manufacturers speak highly of Brian Tooley Racing.
I don't consider him the camshaft king, but damn, what a stupid post. You way wanna do some NMRA research for the last 30 years and see how many guys ran TEA heads, or how many TEA head and cammed cars dominated in the early LS years before aftermarket heads came along. There was only one company running similar numbers to his head and cam setups and they were using 12-14 more degrees intake duration with shit low end and driveability in comparison. Took almost another 10 years for a company to do what he was doing with OEM heads and similar cams.
You should look into his personal C5 engine he did for his daily driver years back if you want to make a Vizard comparison as I've never seen anything from David comparable.
I'm not discounting Vizard either, but you just knocked someone way off a pedestal you shouldn't have and put another one higher than he needs to be.
The "cam shaft" kings should both build a 351 cleveland. That head flowing like no other..you would see huge improvements
