Cam questions?
I have a couple questions. 1st off when it comes to a cam ie trex cam, and it says you need like 4.10's or greater on manuel cars, and a 4000+ converter onautos. and you cant use like 1.8 rockers, I was wondering why?
I also would like to know does the converter matter, for ex if it said 3500+ could I use a stall @ 3000. Also if it said 4.10 or greater could I use my 3.73's?

i think with 1.8 rockers the ptv clearance would be too tight if not negative (valve is in the piston) you can use a smaller stall, butthe car will be a total DOG down low. my g5x3 on a stock stall was funny, it pulled so hard up top people thought i was spraying at about 4000 but it was just the cam doing what it is supposed to.

You say it will be really slow down low, if I put a cam on would I loose power @ the bottom, or would it just stay the same and I would gain a lot at the mid and top?

Also for the other question, how come it says use 4.10 gears or higher, can you use 3.73's on a cam that says use 4.10 or higher?
