Title: What cam and head valve size? Post by: danny gabbard on November 05, 2010, 03:19:11 am On my cow-look car, it will be 78 x 90.5. stock rod length. I have 1.4 rockers, 44 webers and it will be about 9-1 compression-I am at almost 5000 ft above sea level. I want a motor with lots of bottom and mid range. This is a car I want to have fun with low maintance. What cam would you run? It has stock weight fly wheel and stock gears with 4.12 RP. and 25.250 dia rear tires. Thank for any advise

As Donny suggested, the K8 is a great all-arounder for your 1.4 rockers and perfect for a 2.0 with 40X35.5 or 37.5 valves. I'd also consider the 86A flavor by WebCam. What kinda carbs, 52IDAs? LOL. Take care, Tom Title: Re: What cam and head valve size? Post by: Zach Gomulka on November 06, 2010, 00:40:45 am Oops, didn't see the 1.4 rockers. I'd honestly talk to Steve Long (SLR) in Corona. Man knows his cams and has a LOT of grinds to choose from.

Now that's a nice set-up! Ted Title: Re: What cam and head valve size? Post by: Speed-Randy on November 07, 2010, 02:14:37 am K-8, 40x35.5 Steve Tims will be perfect for those 1.4 rockers. w120 only recommends 1.25's.
