Looking To Install A Good Cam "which 1 Should I Get"
thanks for all the help but what other stuff should i order while thing are apart. ................................................. tspence45 .....Well, you're going to need some new valve springs, lifters, pushrods, and whatever else is needed with a cam install. I'd also suggest getting some 1.6 roller rockers for a little extra cam lift. could someone give me a link to where to buy this stuff since im sure you guys no of discount places like ebay which i would love to order from since im a huge fan and member there.thanks fellas
The cc 306 is a decent cam, but is needs alot of supporting mods and most of its useable power in higher in the rpm range. You should use that program I told you about above and determine your specific application and know what rpm your car operates in the most!
exhaust valves port and dia
intake valves port and dia
manifold type/total induction air flow
man this is crazy stuff guys
thanks

ALSO WHAT KINF OF ROCKERS AND PUSHRODS WOULD SUTE ME WELL SINCE IM RUNNING A 150SHOT ON NOS ON THE MOTOR AS WELL
BY THE WAY GUYS I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL THE HELP WITH MY ANNOYING ***
i was just going to move on until i saw that you were writing in all caps and i about flipped out
The cc306 has its place and it is definitely not for a stock headed motor. In that program it is all basic engine ****, and you say it is crazy, maybe you should learn about what you are trying to do before you throw alot of money at mismatched parts and end up regretting it.
I am not trying to crash your party, just trying to save you some grief. $1300 isn't going to get you anywhere near a cam swap. There are many other components that need to be changed and supporting mods that will need to be done as well to support anything that you do. Usually you take your budget and double it and thats still short of what it takes.
How many miles are on this car?Mileage depending you are looking at:
water pump
opti
timing chain
lifters
pushrods
rockers
guideplates
cam bearings
gaskets
lube
oil
to support it you will need:
Springs
exhaust
suspension
for the auto you may need to rebuild it and if you go with a tsall you also need to run a cooler. Thats just a few of the items you have to contend with!
