good deal on an e-cam, how will it work?

stng87 · 04-09-2001, 02:46 PM

I had to get this cam today it had low milage and only 110 bones. How would it work with my set up. Disregard the aod. Sig below.

I think it would make too much lift with the 1.7's, but if you were to swap to 1.6, you'd be ok.

I don't know if you will have p/v contact with the 1.7's or not.

is your car still speed density? if it is it will probably give you some problems, yes some people go pretty big on cams with SD but it doesnt work for every setup, i've heard a B303 is a cam that wont give SD problems, try it and see, you may be ok

I'd say wait for someone to give you more of a definitive answer on those 1.7s. If you are gonna get it, check carefully for clearance.
