My opinion, you are pushing your luck with the 132F. You can't use 264/480 specs. Call a couple cam companies and see what they recommend. I'm sure you will find they will recommend a mild grind.

Notice the Isky E 4 has a longer duration @ .050 than the first Schneider cam. Isky and Racer Brown have fast smooth rates. You were not sucking the pan dry, unless you had a huge oil pump inlet. Did you see any drop in oil pressure?

Clean out your inbox.

Throw away the catalogs and forget those websites.

Call Russ at Erson and he will set you straight. Or Mike Jones @ Jones Cams. Or the guys at Bullitt Cams. Or even Howard's Cams. Get some professional advice.

I would rebuild the 273, shave the heads a bit for more squeeze, buy the RIGHT cam and drive it.

If you want a 318 I have one you can have.

 

[toolmanmike]

Here's some Desktop Dyno numbers for the different cams. All would work on the street but with more horsepower comes more rpm and more torque at lower rpm looses horsepower. It all depends on what you want and the rest of your combination. Now that you are rebuilding the 273 what pistons are you going to use? (Compression) Are you porting the heads? A bigger cam will probably need a steeper gear to make it work better (and rev faster) I see you have 3:55's. Make sure you set up the distributor curve. The best thing I did to my 273.

E4 HP 278 @ 5000
TQ 328 @ 3500

128F HP 286 @ 5500

132F HP 306 @ 5500
TQ 324 @ 4000

toolman =mike:

I called isky and talked to Ron , about there E-3 cam someone mentioned here on fabo. here are some specs >
E-3 > 448 lift 268 adv dur , 108 lobe separation 2400-6600 rpm .. too big again for my combo. no bottom end .
There was also a E-2 solid with 276 dur.

then , he mentioned a T-3 that he recommends for my combo with 10.5:1 compression specs are >> 455 lift , 260 adv Dur 222@50 , 2000-6400 . I think that is one one for me .

Now you're talking. That sounds better. Interesting those cams aren't listed in their catalog. (may be they are but are hard to find there.) Here's that stock 273 with the T3 cam. The set up is with stock heads, manifolds and exhaust.

 

[toolmanmike]

Pretty flat torque curve. (Green line)

It will RPM ,longer than that ,with a decent exhaust port....

 

[Bighead440]

That E-3 is gonna rock, IMO. I like Isky stuff for sure, it will be high quality. A tad milder than my shelf 270S suggestion, but not much!! Never seen true 273 HP pistons, nice valve reliefs!! Enjoy!!

Ron will treat U right
back in the day Isky only had one .904 master solid for MOPARS which we tested in our 413 Wedge
great cam- VERY CONSISTENT used it for years to dial in chassis then Racer Brown cam up with something similar and the cam wars were on
I forget the number 1012B or something- no longer in the catalog
Isky had NO .904 hyd cams in the catalog last time I looked
The Megacams always worked real well for those that wanted extended rev range even if they were all "universal" masters
the running duration was always more than what you expected duration in the catalog was/is at .009 opening .010 closing or something like that
more than Mopar Performance. Engle (.008) etc
I'll have some popcorn now
BTW E4 was great and a factory option in the 57 Ford 312 ya gota love a 60 year old design that predates Poly the polydine parrot or Iskys early IBM computer
no way would I run one in a MOPAR today with today's better springs available

You done did good. Much better to get on the phone and call as MANY cam grinders as you can. Use your GUT. The guy you get on best with will certainly get you the best cam.

Again, here is a guy who did the work and will reap the reward with a cam that does what he wants it do because he got on the PHONE (no idiotic texts, emails, Facebook, Instagram bull crap) and he gets a cam not even listed in the catalog. That's why you CALL them on a PHONE and actually TALK to someone.

Good job OP. Work makes things go better than asking on the net what to do. Can't wait to hear how this turns out. And Isky still makes some damn fine cams. The 505C with 1.6 rockers is a serious dong beater for sure. Love that grind.

LOL that 1012B was a big deal back in the day. I was probably 6-7 years old when I heard the first 1012B. Damn, that was awesome. I actually watched my dad degree it in and then fire it up for his friend. In fact, I still have and use that same degree wheel to this day.

I'm in the wrong generation.

Just ordered a new solid cam from Racer Brown for the 273. 218 duration at .050 and .460 lift. More driver than racer. I'll second the get on the phone recommendation, and be ready to give a lot of info on your combination and be realistic about what you want.
