My stock stroke mild 360 build ;)
But I think I’m gonna change the cam after all. Need a little more overlap. This one builds too much cylinder pressure..It does say not to be used with anything over 9:1, I’m at 10.5:1..so it was a mismatch from the get go. . I’m gonna take
@rumblefish360 ’s advice and cam the **** outof it. LOL
So Rumble, would ya mind recommending a nice solid lifter cam? :)
I gave up recommendations on cams.
To many opinions chime in. While different thoughts are welcomed, it always turns into ether a overload of opinions and information and/or a pissing match.
Someone who has been there and done that will chime in, then someone will say they did it with less cam, but fail to mention there combo is nothing like yours, next *** clown steps up with a calculator, and it goes on and on.
I have often given my thoughts and tips on camshaft selection.
And yup! One or two *** clowns pop in and you re read the top paragraph again.
speed pro hyper pistons, .003 from top of deck, speedmaster 65cc heads.
The wife’s 360 has the .030 oversized flat top Federal Mougal 5cc relief pistons set at zero deck with a .028 Cometic head gasket and TF heads running a Comp Hyd. roller (224@050) with 1.6 rockers.
Runs on 93, I haven’t tried 89 yet. Coming soon.
Running a knock of MSD, OOTB, which is freaking exactly the same inside! With 20* initial. I will add 18* stop bushings later along with a spring change out yet to be determined.
I don’t like this distributor in this particular set up. I’d rather go backwards to a recurved OE unit.
Have you thought about a thicker .050 head gasket?
You’ll still retain a good quench while taking a slight drop in the static ratio.
Research a cam with what
@AJ/FormS would call a crap cam. Just be prepared for a Novell on the subject. Freaking guy can make your eyes bleed. But there’s a lot of good information that he can dish out on the subject but I just don’t wanna bother with rewriting like AJ and like I did years ago. It’s actually pretty simple.
AJ, nut shell it!
