Stock HO cam VS letter cams

[Tailites]

What are you using to notch?

something like this...I made my own...

it has an adjustable collar to adjust depth of cut...https://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&s...19.u52GxvGjyWs

either power adder,retarding the camshaft moves the power band later in thge RPM range,thus with any power adder the torque it produces will come in later as well as peak HP
stock cam is flat after 5200, retarding it 6-8 degrees will put the cam at 5600-5800 rpm,which is good for boosted cars like S trims.



QUOTE=Tailites;117072]why retard it?...(intake early exhaust late?) correct?

& what power adder...turbo or SC?

& what about the venerable "F" cam?

curious on your thoughts...thanks[/QUOTE]

I want more revs out of the turbo car...it has an "F" in it

thing signs off at about 5000...

it runs great really...lots of torque...just doesnt pull after 5000
