RE: Cam,Cams,Cammed and more cams
duration /valve overlap determines how agressive the lope will be

RE: Cam,Cams,Cammed and more cams

RE: Cam,Cams,Cammed and more cams
probably squeeze with the right combo 270 to 280 rwhp out of a sd car......cause at the range you'll be pushin the 19 lb injectors close to their max duty cycle and for more hp after that you'll most likely need a sd tunner to alter tune for larger injectors

you will have to lose the stock ecu and go with an aftermarket like megasquirt or xfi.
