Cams again.

So lets talk cams again. I read some of the old threads and it seemed like the general concensus was a 240 duration and 8mm lift cam was a good start. I called Delta to see what they offer as a street cam and it was a 264 at 10.16mm lift. Wasnt that decided to be a bit much last time? The car is going to stay n/a for a while but I would like to add a bit more power.

Too much lift with the stock valves and springs. Check the old threads again. I believe that 9mm is safe. Duration should be fine

Re: Cams again.

I dont wanna go crazy on it, from the reading it sounded like 240-244 duration was great with just that 1mm more lift.
