cam spec question? Will a cam have more of a lope with different duration as apposed to a cam with the same duration?
231/237dur.. 591/601
236/236dur.. 590/590
ls is 112 on both
probably a dumb question.
I have the second cam and I want a little lope? will it have it?
thanks TC

from what ive heard the ls is mainly what causes the "lope" sound and of course the size, a 112 ls isnt near as much as 110 ls when it come the "loping sound" from what ive been told by people i would consider smart in the valve train dept lol so if i were you i would try to find a cam with a 110 ls

Thanks everyone,
I am putting this cam in a 72 Vega, a 99ls1 motor with new springs,oil pump,double roller timing chain and 7.4 push rods, I'm looking for a good dd with a little bite for the sound, it's light enough and I hope that it will it will run good and still get some good mpg, 373 gears with a lock up 3000 stall, built 200r4.. I have talked with John at speartech! about tuning, Again thanks for all your time and expertise..
