Cheated cams

Cheater cams were ground to do exactly what their name implies. Cheat the restrictive rules regarding certain classes of racing.

Most of the time, those rules included running stock compression and limited to stock lift. That's why cheater cams usually have pretty wild durations and LSA's but pretty low lift to keep within the rules.

So......one could argue cheater cams were designed to run in an otherwise stock engine. As long as converter and gear matches the cam, it will probably run pretty good.
