Custom Comp Cams???

[98mstanggt]

Ok a couple months ago i brought some used custom cams built for N/a from a guy for with 2500 miles he wanted $400 for them but i talked him down to $200 (he paid $700 for them) :laughing5: so i wasnt going to refuse that deal.......He told me with full bolt on's, Higher compression, Stage 2 PI heads, Full Exhaust, and a Tune he made 350rwhp..........My question is these some pretty good cams, are they pretty aggressive, also do you think they would go good with Trickflow New Heads considering they flow alot better cause if i could get at least 370rwhp with the New heads im def going to buy them.......(specs below) Thanks

Do anybody know something about Cams??? :dontknow:

He lied to you....

He lied to you....

What are you referring to the Horsepower numbers if so i didnt really believe that but everything else is true i got the reciept, spec sheets, stickers, and everything else that came with the cams

If you put those cams into your engine, you'll ram a valve into a piston.

glad you asked... i would have hated to see a fellow stanger go down. :-(

You'll need a fly cut for those and he lied about his Hp is what I was saying.

Yeah i know thats why they still sitting beside my bed......But the New Trickflow heads have alot more PTV Clearance right???

i personally doubt it..... im not going to pretend to tell you what you have or let you think im a trick flow head master or anything, but if the heads are raised up, it would reduce the compression ratio. is this what you purchased? it would def. tell you if you changed your compression ratio.

if they just raised the CAMS on the heads, you would need new brakets to hold it down... i would imagine. and that would make taller cams useless in those heads... u know what i mean?

im afraid you will have to get a different piston set up, or have your pistons worked on to use cams that are too tall. or maybe just chop off the tops to each valve and spring lol. thats a good idea! (not)

I saw where that guy said that, and it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever to me. PTV clearance comes from duration, and with 250 degrees at .050, you have a ton.

The specs are closer to the XE278AH cams and i know you need to flycut the pistons for the them.....Look like ima be fly cutting but dont plan on using the cams anytime soon if not at all depend on what i wanna do with the motor but Thanks for the Info

People keep asking them how this is possible, and they never have an answer. Just because a "tech" say's it, doesn't make it true.

PTV is determined by duration of the cam, not by max lift.

he lied about the power. there's a guy on corral with every bolt on imaginable with custom cams and stage 3 pi heads and he only made 330rwhp give or take a couple.
