Which of the 2 cams would be better for my combo to get lag down better. Right now the bolt on approach seems better for that fact. Only time I seen the gears come off like that is if the cam and gear had oil on when reassembled from doing the gear hsg if the cam was not pulled. Mainly the snout breaks off.
mine is just a stoopid itty bitty 12mm!PRattenbury said:Bulit p-pumps put a lot more load on the camshaft and cause the gear to walk under the best of conditions. Signal's cam gear in the pics above was installed at the factory and never disturbed until he took that pic. He was running a 13mm Stoopid Pump, et voila....
DieselDiva said:I just put a Maxspool 2.5 in my '96 that we just rebuilt. It's AWESOME!! It spools much better, and I have an increase in power through out the band. The only things we did differently when we rebuilt it is this cam and we went to 20 over stock pistons.
I have a Con OFE clutch that wasn't slipping at all before, and now it's really bad. The double disk is on order.
I would recommend this to anyone!

This will prevent the gear from walking off. Any of the MaxxSpool cams can be gotten drilled & tapped for an additional fee, call me for more info.
THEKIDFAN said:Are these the bolts that are included with Greg's cams?
I will not buy another cam without a bolt on gear, but I would go much further/deeper then what these suggest! JMO
GLHS said:What size are 2nd gen vs 3rd gen lifters?
I have been told 1st gens have a "foot" of 1.18".
Can larger "foots" be used with these cams?
Sounds like either of these cams will spool about 200-300 rpm sooner?
Would it be safe to assume they will typically lower boost pressure?
Alternatively you could PM the original poster and see which one he likes better. He's run both in the same engine, dyno'd both and then chose the better one for his new engine.Holy schmokes...two hours later and I still don't know any more about either of the cams...
I've got messages out to greg and also to don...so I guess I'll see soon who wants to enlighten me on their cam and possibly sell another cam...
