? about T1 and B1 cam

The B1 just makes more power up high, correct? So does this mean you have to rev higher to get the same times as the T1?

The B1 makes peak power supposedly 200rpms higher than the T1, but the T1 torque comes on a little quicker..

Re: ? about T1 and B1 cam

I've seen the two cams compared on a dyno. the T1's torque comes in sooner and has a slight advantage in peek torque(3-7ft/lbs) but once your up to 4700 rpm's both cams look the same, the HP peek is the same and they drop off at the same point.
So reving higher with the B1 is not needed.

My T1 peaked at 6400rpm... All depends on the setup I think..

Re: ? about T1 and B1 cam

With the T1 my horsepower peaks at around 6200rpm. With the cam, LT's, lid, and Borla I pulled 381rwhp and 375rwtq on a Mustang dyno so I am definitely happy with this setup. That's with the stock heads and shortblock.
