Quote: I did some online research before buying this cam and two moparts members have it in stock resto cars and are happy with it,I thought it speced out fairly mild?
Sooo,Cab says I should install it at 102 and cudaman is saying 112? Im getting confused here ! My local engine guy as well as BGR are saying 108 is good!
NO NO... they are talking 2 different things... Cab is saying to INSTALL at 102.. Cuda is talking LSA (lobe separation angle).... from your initial post you said you moved the timing pointer.... if thats the case your timing would be based on the od pointer... when installing a cam you set TDC on the piston then slide the cover on to verify the zero... so if you moved the pointer you changed a lot of factors.... back to the cam numbers... like Cab said I would INSTALL it at 102 or so for the lower end torque A cam that is installed retarded(as in 109 or higher) will have low vac
