Twin Cam Camshaft Specs
Posted: Sun Oct 16, 2005 8:50 pm
Friends
I've just got hold of three sets of camshafts fo a twin cam. I know about the engraved grooves to identify the standard cams, but at least one of the cam sets has been reprofiled (I think), so I want to find information on the net (ideally) about lift for common performance cams. I don't have the equipment to measure durations/ timings unless I fit the cam. So two questions:
Is there a website with twin cam technical data?
How much lift can you have before you need special springs/ other valve train mods?
I am not repeat not going racing.
