Is anyone running a 3/4 cam retarded?
OH BOY
HERE COME THE JOKES. Yes any 3/4 cam has got to be 1/4 cam away from a full deck. But seriously, I need to know what to expect if I retard my 3/4 cam 2 degrees or 4 degrees. Common, someone out there has got to be bleeding oval blue as bad as I do. Where are the racers????? See my other cam posting if you want to see the breakdown on the engine in question. Thanks for any jokes or advice in advance.......sorry for the pun....

I have an 1 7/8 cam. I had to rock that baby back and fourth to get it to fit through the cam bearings.

Weren't 3/4 cams the old GM/Chevy 'racer' cams from like back in the 60's? There was a post about 3/4 cams a while back...you may want to try a search and see if you can find it.
Just an idea. E
