Re: L88 cam in L78?
Fred:
Some quick guestions on the engine combo. What intake/carb are you gonna run (L-88 stuff?)? And this car will mainly be a street car, with a trip to the track once in a while?
The thing with the magnum muscle cam is there is just a tad more duration (242 vs. 250) on the exhaust side, but is identical on the intake, but it's got a TON more lift and a LOT tighter LSA (110). That LSA worries me, as that's a borderline race car spec. That means it's gonna have a choppy idle, and may have a vacuum problem. But, I'd give Comp a call and ask. Also something to consider is the more RPM you wanna run, the better your valvetrain has to be, and the more wear and tear on the engine. Just food for thought.
