Default Blower cam?
Hey guys, should I change my cam when I bolt the Magnuson blower on? I'm thinking its not that bad a cam. I'm using the Comp 216/220 114ls. There is more exhaust duration and lift. What are your thoughts? I may as well try it and dyno it after to see. Thanks in advance. <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

That cam should work fine with a blower. I have the 218/224 114 lsa comp cams that I'm going to run with mine.

Sounds good Mike, thanks for the reply. I'm going a different route with the Magnuson Roots blower but it should work well with it. What kind of hp/tq. numbers are you seeing with your setup? Thanks and take care! <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

Hey Mike, did you ever get your car back together and dyno it? I'm very interested in seeing your numbers since I'm running the same cam with the 1.8 Crane rockers. Thanks <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />
