Lunati 51014 cam questions

Andy, I guess my staement was a little misleading, huh

My cam has tighter lobe centers 102/107 and has more overlap 65 degrees this is a strict NA cam only, a NA car likes the overlap, it does have slightly less lift but nothing to talk about .509 to .512. The 51014 has blower friendly lobe centers and has less overlap so it will be a good NA or Blower or N2O cam. I think a cam with more overlap and tighter lobe center may run better for him in a 10:1 NA car but if this car see's street duty it isn't worth it, it is a head aches at time thats why I am swapping mine out. I am tired of no vaccumm and loading up while sitting at a stop light. My new N-61 is pretty steep with the .544/.568 lift but it has a 110 lobe center and a little less duration so it will pull better vacuum and make more power for my combo. The 51014 will be a lot better on the street and will cause less headaches. Drop me a line whats new with you and your car. I'll give you a update, the car is in many, many pieces

I hope to have it all back together around April 7th. Rick91GT@onemain.com or rhawver@strouse.com
