Default Re: Tuning For Speed-Major Tuning (Blueprinting)

'need much taller lobes on the cam than a stock OHV cam'


Thought there might be a problem with using two stock camshafts.


Attempted to be budgetary about it.


It would have been better to do this in the 80's when we were all hooked up with machine shops and even rented space from a 'pattern shop'.


That is the beginning of casting parts.Making a pattern to go to casting shop.
Just did not think of anything like this then.Could have had all the cast parts we wanted for medium money.


Okay.So Overhead camshafts are out.


Supercharging we will give it a whirl.Paxton or GMC/Roots type.Put ad in Wanted section here.If nothing happens then that is out.

Twin engines has a little appeal.Will keep thatt in the maybe file.


That leaves us with running the race gas down the street in basically stock engines.


Fabricated intakes.Originals prices don't work for us.Headers.Drag type.


We'll live I suppose.Could be worse.
