i wouldnt count on lift helping a whole lot of anything really. it may help performancce but i dont think you would feel it at all. if just stepping up in lift only i think you will be dissapointed.
no i didnt say anything about the B-cam being better. but if your trickflow stage 1 has beefier specs and just has less lift. a little more lift on that cam will not make it pull 1000rpm higher. i think it will act the same and you may not be able to tell the difference. lift isnt near as important as duration and LSA thats what has the bigger affect on how high/low your powerband will be.
what mods did the guy have? if its custom cam make sure he has the same mods you do before installing it. if he bought it for his car it could run great for his but if your engines are different it may not work so good for yours. he may have shifted that high but i doesnt mean it was making peak power. it could have peaked earlier and just not really felt it. ask him if he had it on a dyno and have him email the dyno sheet if he has any.
personally i wouldnt tear it all down to change to that cam, going to less duration and stuff and only gaining a bit of lift i dont think it will respond well
i just misunderstood the whole situation lol sorry. seeing how u got it custom cut for your car it should run good. but it is odd that it has less duration. i figured your combo would like more duration if anything
It is more in the lobe design, overlap and valve timing for the lope sound...
SOUNDS MEANS NOTHING..........
If you gave a reputable company all your info then you should be very happy with the cam, with that .050 number depending on your intake/top half I would not expect PEAK power over 6000-6200rpm, and if you have a stock computer you are limted to 6250 anyways.
Whats the combo?? Who did the cam?
I don't think your intake is restricting you...it isn't going to be the sole contributor to power loss, thats for sure...
The Track Heat can breathe on up to where your cam is going...from what I have seen with other combos...
well i meant restricting me from going bigger with the cam
hope all gos as planned. i have a similar combo, just got it running good. what are your goals?
