Thread: Thoughts on Grand Prix Store Cam 1 ?

Well, i just picked a new cam. Its the PFYC cam 1 and the deal was too good to pass up. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with it. And how well do you think it will perform with the mods in my sig? I would hate to go through all the work only to find that it doesnt perform as well as i had hoped.

The specs are:

Grand Prix Store Cam #1

200 degree/212 degree at .050
Intake Lift .315 (.504 lift at 1.6:1 rocker ratio)
Exhaust Lift .325 (.520 lift at 1.6:1 rocker ratio)
115 Lobe Separation

Thanks in Advance

i believe its similar to the vs from zzp. the vs is a pretty stout cam, so id think itd work out pretty well for you.

ZZP VS Cam

206/216 at .050"
Intake Lift .320" (.512" lift at 1.6:1 rocker ratio)
Exhaust Lift .317" (.507" lift at 1.6:1 rocker ratio)
115 LSA

So how much of an effect does the duration of a cam actually have on the power produced? And between the the GPS and the VS, which intake/exhaust lift would be best for my setup?

the VS is overall going to be a better cam, but the GPS cam will just make the car react similarly. they are both going to have a good amount of mid range and the powerband will move up considerably as well.

Okay cool. Thanks for the help

x2

you got a good deal for a reason

i would stick with rockers vs that cam. or go with the vs or the xp if you do the swap...

I think I am just gonna do rockers for now. I am going cam in the future, but i would rather wait and just do it right the first time with an XP. Thanks for the advice guys.
