Best cams? - 11/3/2006 2:53:03 PM    paintballproam Posts: 1292 Joined: 3/14/2006 Status: offline I was in auto class today and our teacher told us that a good, streetable cam with a pretty bumpy idle should have 260-270 duration, and .50 lift. Now looking at the comp cams that are comparable to the hks 272's (comp 10200's) it says it has Intake Duration 259 Exhaust Duration 258 Intake Valve lift .411 Exhaust Valve lift .395 Now according to comp cams this is a VERY aggressive streetable cam. Now according to my teacher, this isnt that big of a cam. Now he is more used to V8's but still wouldnt like 265 duration and .5 lift be better? _____________________________ 98% of people die at some point in thier life 1995 eagle talon tsi awd 6 BOLT Evo 3 16g Evo 3 o2 housing tubular stanless manifold 3" stanless turbo back Polished intake Greddy rs bov ETS 10" FMIC Post #: 1
