DR cam (camgrinder) was the go to guy, but he's MIA lately. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
Elgin isn't returning a buddies calls as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Webs are a bit pricey. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) Used custom is a crap shoot. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Looking for something like a DC40. 3.0, 10:1, twinplug, 40 webers 34vents, RSR style malhe pistons, mostly street (country road) pleasure car. Any thoughts from the /6 crowd??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |

I'm building a 2.7 to put in my car. I have a set of new Crane cams that are pretty much the same as a GE60 grind, close to a 911S cam. I'd like to find a good set of E cams, and would make a deal with the Crane stuff. Not sure that I want a cam as peaky as an S cam for a street car. Maybe if it was a 3.0, which has more torque.

I don't know on that one... I can't even find a listing for porsche on the crane site. I don't fancy getting stuck with a cam I don't like as well. I'm looking for that perfect in between cam, a cross of hot, with good street characteristics, OK MPG and an acceptable idle. I know there is no perfect cam, so I'm looking for the best compromise. |
