Thread: Cam specs?

No it wont blow up, but it will not run like it should.

what about the intense s1x with the new timing chain? any good?

is this something i could use hp tuners to tune myself or would i have to get a expensive dyno tune cause the closest dyno i know of is in tulsa (almost 4 hours away)

The Innovate Motorsports LC-1 is a good wideband and can be found for a good price.

I just read this thread for the first time, great info

i picked up a PRJ LL for my new L26 based motor and didn't see any specs on the cam in this thread (or its possible i missed them, in that case my bad)

PRJ LL Cam

Duration @ .050" 214º/220º
Intake Lift .305" (1.6 Rockers .488, 1.8 Rockers .549)
Exhaust Lift .285" (1.6 Rockers .456, 1.8 Rockers .513)
ICA: 113°
LSA: 114°

okay so after reading this I'm a little confused,what would be the best cam for a car i want to daily drive but also run hard at the track on weekends? I dont understand the specifications of the cams,but I understand what they do and what the performance gains are. Any suggestions??

Pretty sure that is covered...everywhere.

If you don't understand the specifications then you don't understand what they do.

I understand what a cam does and the performance gains that come with it,I just cant quite decyfer the correct way to read the specs. I'm new to this kind of thing and i would rather figure this stuff out on my own and build a car than pay someone to build my car for me.

Not sure if I should ask this here or somewhere else, but what do stock heads limit you to? I know its somewhere in the 500 range, but was curious if anyone knows exactly what lift numbers are max for stock heads.

If you don't take the lifters out they will fall into the motor or can fall into the motor.

I don't think there are holes to put dowel rods in to hold the lifters up but I forget.
