Hell, if you need a guinea pig, pick me!!! :cheer: :cheer:
I have a decent build, 750-800hp. The only thing I don't have is a cam. Providing eveything is clicking, it runs 11.1s pretty consistantly, with an occasional dip in the 11.0s. I have enough smoke to warrant more air, but my converter is likely too tight to spool bigger charger(s). And, I don't want a higher stall converter.
I'm on the verge of buying a cam to help it spool and for more top end. But due to clearance issues, and the possibility that it might not help that much, I'm on the fence.
My proposal is....
Zach, send me a 188/220 cam and lifters. I'll run next week with my standard tune, record times. Then I'll stick the cam in, and run again the next week without changing anything else. Then compare times. If and where the cam helps should be pretty obvious by the time slips. I don't have a data logger, so I can't really do pretty graphs. But I do shoot video of my gauges during a run, and my gauges record peak measurements. So I'd have useful data.
You'd have a direct comparison between cams for your cost on the cam and lifters, instead of $1600.
Seems like a no brainer to me. LOL
