Both are sold.
« on: February 13, 2026, 07:39:02 AM »
Got this one that's been laying on the shelf for several years. 

It's a billet core solid flat tappet, so you'll have to run DLC coated tool steel lifters. 

265/278 @ .050", 108 LSA, .715" gross lift with 1.76 rocker. 

$350 plus shipping.

I also have another billet core solid flat tappet camshaft that I had Bullet grind for me, but it's going to be a very rare bird as it was ground for a flat plane crankshaft.  The firing order is a Ferrari firing order.   Chances are there are absolutely zero people who will ever be able to use it, but it may make a good lamppost or something......

Fair offers accepted for either cam.

Payment sent yesterday

Now several afterthoughts, 1st, what Dist gear do you recommend for the cam, and do you have any ? remembering something about a possible issue.

2nd, what spring pressures do you recommend for this cam ?

Thanks
Richard

Steel distributor gear.  No issues, build just never got off the ground. 

For spring loads, you need to be at 200/500.  Use quality DLC coated tool steel lifters.

Cam showed Fri, thanks.

So, Brent how do you think this cam will work in a 494 ci motor, with Jays Ported Tunnel Ports.

Motor specs: 4.300 x 4.250
Head specs: 8mm Hollow Stems x 2.300 Int x 5/16 x 1.735 exh
The seats were cut with a 5 angle valve job,
and I went with 45 deg angle seats.

Intake Flow Numbers
Lift        Flow
.400     258.16 
.500     308.48     
.600     356.53   
.700     390.40
.800     411.79
.900     425.16

TP Exh Flow Numbers
Lift      Flow
.100    58
.200    119
.300    181
.400    208
.500    229
.600    240
.700    244
.800    247
                                               
The chamber bore size's, I had opened up to 4.300" to help to relieve
the Int & Exh shrouding to help with flow. Unfortunately, it was done
after the heads had already been flowed, so the current numbers 
could be slightly increased.
