Choice of cam
« on: January 31, 2012, 07:20:37 pm »
Hi i have a 1341 highly port and polished inlet and throttle body, ported head, lightened flywheel etc with a full blend charger. I have a vernier pully just wandering what sort of cam to get and which make. Cheers

with a g-lader people tend to go for an asymmetrical cam like a 276/252. These are often listed as "g40" cams on manufacturer's websites.  But longer duration cams don't have too much of an effect on a g-ladered g40 though, might be best spending money elsewhere.

Speak to PPP and get it ordered from them as they got a trade account with them.
