if im building a motor for torque. is this a good dur. and such for a stock 351c. give me your ideas.

Hydraulic camshaft,1500-4000 rpm range,
282 intake/ 292 exhaust adv. duration,
204 intake and 214 exhaust duration @ .050 ,
Valve lift of .484 intake and .510 exhaust,
Lobe C/L is 112.

torque camshaft kit

 

yeah the power band is on the low end side of thr rpm band which is where you need it and where most of the torque will be needed for like towing

 

i still say save up do everything at once you will not be disappointed with the bracket master

 

noob question, what does duration and lift mean? and is it the more of each the better or what? im rebuilding my 289 and just want a mild cam and lifter setup. hyrdraulic preferably. with roller lifters and rockers.

 

lift is how far the valve opens up and duration is for how long the valve stays open.......if you want a decent idle go lower on duration and compensate for it on lift...as far as putting a roller cam in your 289 block you'd need to buy a retro fit roller cam and lifter set up and the cam choices are minimal for the retro fit set up and the lifters are like 400 to 500 i'd be cheaper to buy a 5.0 roller cam block and add the proper conversion balancer and flexplate and or flywheel depending on your set up.....

 

honestly i dont have the money to rebuild. it would be like 2500 bucks right? i wanna just start adding to this motor and then eventually bore it and rebuild it.

 

theres 2 cams the guy sells as a kit. do you think this or the other cam kit would benifit me more on a stock cleveland

Hydraulic camshaft,2000-4500 rpm range, 292 intake/ 302 exhaust adv.duration, duration @ .050 of 214 intake and 224 exhaust, Valve lift of .510 intake and .536 exhaust, Lobe C/L is 112.

 

well the smaller cam has less duration and lift.. and will probably give you a slightly better idle quality due to less duration.....I might go with the smaller one.....but the real question is what are you doing and what is this motor going in???? are you planning on towing.....is that why you want a rv/toming cam meant for producing torque...if however this is going in a mustang and your looking for low end power then I'd look more so at performance camshafts not rv/towing cams. cause a performance cam will have a broader power band and still have plenty of bottom end and mid range power

 

Yeah, both of those cams are on the small side for a performance engine, but great for towing if it's going into a truck.

 

where do you guys get the RV towing from?? he never said anyhitng about towing. i want a torquey cam too for easier burnouts.
