How about this cam in a 283?
I bought this cam a couple of years ago to put in a Caprice but had an offer on the car that I couldn't refuse and sold it before I put the cam in it.
I am now building an S10 with a 283 and was wanting suggestions/opinions/boo's/hisses/ anything about how good it might be in the 283. Cam spec's; lift 465 in./488 ex.Duration @ .050 224/234; advertised duration 282/292; Timing @ .050 Intake opens 3 deg.btdc,closes 41 deg.abdc; Exhaust opens 56 deg. bbdc,closes (2) deg.btdc; 114 LSA.
Motor has .030 flat top pistons,305HO (416) heads with 9:1 static compression.
Offy 360 intake with holley 650. Th350 trans with 411 gears
Would this be a good/bad/ugly cam for this build? I can't make up my mind on cam selection so I am open to other suggestions Thanks.Hey has that thing gotta Heme in it? No, it's a shevy not heme!
Shine's done a lot more hot rod & muscle car builds than me, but I've found an adjustable PV to be helpful in balancing front to back braking. All OEM vehicles use a non-adjustable proportioning...
Time for brakes
