All for .370 lift and under ........

Post #100. The Crower mileage cams were nothing really special & didn't close the intake valve late compared to a lot of mileage cams, which were ground on 112-114 LSA. The Crower cams were ground on 110 LSA. Isky economy cams were ground on 112 LSA, which closes the int later than 110.
These were an Atkinson Cycle type cam, different than mileage cams. These apparently were not well received as they did not stick around for long. Problem was the tune also required modification and off idle torque suffered a bit. Now if building an engine for that cam, higher static compression could be used. At low RPM the dynamic compression bled of cylinder pressure but as the intake charge momentum picked up with RPM the static compression was more evident. I can not remember the intake duration and LCA specs but seem to recall a longer duration intake lobe, something along the lines of 10° to 15° more than the exhaust. Intake opening was close to the same as a regular cam but the closing was later.
Possibly Crane cams but I do not think so.
