MiracleMax · 11-30-2002, 01:13 AM

anybody done a cam install on the sohc mod motor yet?

whats invovled in doing the cam install?

what are the pit falls?

I'm looking at the billet Crower cams (649 a pair)

The stock cam is 114 - 192/184 @ .050 and .533 I/.505 E lift

The stage one cam is 114 - 204/200 @ .050 and .549 I/.540 E lift

The stage two cam is 114 - 212/208 @ .050 and .570 I/.559 E lift

just looking at the specs, the mod head seems to have a pretty good exhaust port.

This comes under the heading of a pipe dream, but I plugged some #'s into DTD 2000 and this is what it spit out

281 cid V-8
3.550 x 3.550
Heads: Fox Lake Stage II
Intake: Sequential F.I (Maybe the Bullit Intake is somehwere between S.F.I and T.P.I)
Exhaust: Large tube headers & mufflers (1-5/8 Long tubes and X-pipe with good mufflers maybe??)
Cam: Crower Stage II (114 LCA, 110 IC, 258/254 seat to seat, .570 int/.559 exh), hydraulic lifter (maybe solid is more accurate??)
Comp Ratio: 9.4:1

287 hp & 332 ft/lbs (hydraulic lifter profile)
305 hp & 346 ft/lbs (solid lifter profile)
327 hp & 365 ft/lbs (roller lifter profile)

since these are best power #'s, you would probably have to do some ignition mods, in order to get there, but it looks kinda promising and this is n/a with the stock compression.
