This video explains on how to read a camshaft spec sheet, how it works and which one is suitable for which purpose. How you can select one for your use in your car. I try to take the nonsens and stories out of many camshaft discussions, bigger is not always better...

@@D3Sshooter Steve any way to know without opening the engine what type of camshaft my MG B has. I think that one of the previous owner may have change it to a fast road setting, but I’m not sure. The factory 0.015 valve clearance doesn’t seem the right setting and the car requires 15 degrees advance it idle to run smooth. Tganks

Steve, Easy to understand explanation and a wake up call for the boy racers lol🤣😂 We know how the high lift or race cam has to be matched with RPM otherwise they sound like a bag of bolts and very uncomfortable to drive in modern traffic. I have had to learn to drive my track Mini in a completely different way. Cheers Dave

Hi Steve, great video. Does compression ratio also play a roll in choosing the proper cam for your engine? I also race a MGB but with a compression of about 10:1. Would a Kent 719sp be suitable for my engine?

@joe-hp4nk Жыл бұрын

Regardless of the use, the cam must match the compression ratio and breathing capabilities of he engine.

Hi Steve, I struggle a lot on timing twin cam especially if no timing marks visible. If you have time make a video on how can one time such. I learn a lot from you and develop courage to take chance on engines because of you. But I repent because I opened BMW E46, 320d with m47 engine and seriously there are no timing marks there and cam shaft has no key way for can sprockets.

White noise? Many racers unlike me don't like science. 300 duration power band hi RPM, under 300 duration power band low end torque? Cam card only see numbers.
