My question is, if I switch to the XR270HR roller lifter cam, would I get the same results. The XR270HR is .495 I and.502 E with 1.5 rocker arms.
Which is the better cam for low rpm torque? Or is there a better cam than these 2 for bottom end torque?
Would someone care to tell me what the ideal build would be for bottom end torque? I figure if I have the torque, horsepower and performance would take of themselves.
