My Turn For A Cam Question

My cam in is my sig. What are your opinions of performance increases by going to say, a B1/T1 cam ? I'm not sure that a difference of .020-.030 of lift makes that much of a difference. Thanks!!

First of all what are your current #'s. I see a possible gain, but not much..

Re: My Turn For A Cam Question

I have a B1 cam in a ARE S2 head setup, and I am not pleased by the power output. I know several other people that are also going away from this setup (B1/T1) to a bigger cam. I can pretty much guarantee that you will be talking about upgrading soon again if you go anything less than a TR 224/224.

Re: My Turn For A Cam Question

Thanks for all your replies.

Well, with a LM only, I got 316/327 on a Dynojet 248. With all my mods, I got 360/360 on a Mustang dyno. I'm waiting for the SuperFest next month to get a couple more runs on the same Dynojet.
