*Cam opinion's and advice* 2001 TA Plans for the car. (Weekend warrior) Full weight and AC Rear will be a quick performance 9" 390s Transmission will be performabuilt lvl 2 with a PT4000 Yank converter. Fast 92 Intake Stock bottom end 68k Got a deal in some Advanced induction 241s non high compression, so I will be using those. Manley stock valves and 660 lift springs. I am wondering what cam will work best with those heads ? I have been looking heavily at the btr stg 4 na cam. I do not want to fly cut the pistons. just trying to see what options are out there and if I'm over looking a better cam choice. |
The heads are the 219cc 241s |
My .02 Cam Motion LS1 Titan 4 227/232 113+3 or Titan 5 232/238 113+3, The BTR Stage 4 233/247 needs more Compression Ideally 11.3:1+ and 7000+ RPM & FAST 102/102 to maximize. I would choose the Titan 4 first then Titan 5 before the BTR 4 with your combo and goals. |
Thank you for your input. I will look into those 👍🏼

BTR cam has been 10s in the quarter mile numerous times over and over with several heads that's on the market. If you was building a daily driver I would go with a smaller cam but weekend warrior you looking to cut some throats at the track :D |

Sometimes the best cam isn’t always the biggest cam you can stuff in there, especially in a sbe. |

I tried to contact AI to see what cam would work best with these heads but they only do email and I haven't heard anything. I might run a Fast 102 just depends on which ever I catch a deal on. Will end up running the Speed engineering 1 7/8 long tubes and TD exhaust. Has 1 3/4 LT headers currently. far as driveability that 4k stall should soak up any bucking or surge. But isnt that mostly in the tune ? we have a good local tuner so tune is no issue. If I had to say max effort was 10 and driveability was 1 I'd be shooting for a 7 my last car had a F14 standard version which I think was 232/234 598.598. 112. And that drove fine with the FTI 4k stall I had. Thank you guys for throwing out advice and options. I'm looking at that titan 4 but it dont give a rpm window. Does anyone know that rpm range ? |
The 241s have Manley 2.00 intake and 1.55 exhaust valves 66cc Int _ exh 0.100. 65.6 _ 54.1 0.200 143.5 - 101.2 0.300 208.1 _ 144.1 0.400 251.2 _ 173.7 0.500 270.7 _ 197.5 0.600 284.9 _ 209.5 0.650 285.8 _ 211.8 0.700. 287.2 _ 215.2 |
Titan4 will carry to 7000 with your intake setup. I like the Titan5 for your setup or something custom between the two. Like others have said with the btr stage 4 you’re going to need more cr, more rpm, and more gear to utilize its 16.5degrees of overlap. |

Way too big. Will drive like garbage. I'd get this https://cammotion.com/camshafts/tita...227-232-113-4/ |
I say sell those heads and pick up a set of TFS 220 as casts from btr with a smaller chamber. The 220s will have way more ptv and compression opening up more options for bigger cams, not to mention they flow better |
What would a set of those run ? I dont know but I wouldn't imagine the gains being tremendous over the 241s. If we were talking 50 more hp I'd be interested. If were talking 10 or 15 not really worth it imo

I paid under 1700 for mine from btr with ferrea valves and powder metal guides no springs and the milled them for free. |
I think there are some brand new Fast 102's for sale right now in the marketplace. Good prices too :) |
So I contacted Cam motion and they reccomend me run the King Titan cam. What are some of yalls thoughts on that ? |
