E-cam vs B-cam?

Mach 1 · 09-19-2002, 05:23 AM

Unit - Can you expalin why the e-cam is notorious for surging problems in EFI mustangs? Why so MANY more people have experienced surging with this cam compared to other cams? Im convinced it is the narrow LSA, and narrow LSA's arent the best for blower applications. Are you debateing this point? Thats the point I said.

Its not that difficult to make 500 HP with a blower on a modded mustang, so using those benchmarks as somekind of proof for the e-cam is ridiculous. Swap the e-cam out and see what kind of power those combinations make with a better blower grind.

And the e-cam sucks for automatics, again because of its narrow LSA, which gives it no bottom end.

I remind you I speak from experience with the e cam and not what I read from the Ford Motorsport catalog, as sometimes I think you are doing.

I dont deny that you have studied cams and have some good knowledge, you spent more time figuring them out than me, but I am making valid points..Im not just throwing garbage out there.

And I have spent more than a couple weekends swapping cams just to alter my cars idle and powerband characterisitcs. Have you?
