You’re right man...back in the day it was all about the B or E cams occasionally someone had some money to throw at a lunati. There’s a reason people still look for the GT40/GT40P’s and run the letter cams....they’re proven! And something to be said for a simple combo on a 30 year old car still out there hurting feelings!

I'm doing a 302 .030 over in a nissan hardbody. The engine was donated to me by my neighbor. I heard the engine run but still tore it down for a rebuild. Very good condition. I'm doing the mild hand porting on GT40P heads, roller rockers, link bar roller lifters, Lunati 51027LUN cam (which has been discontinued) Eddie intake, 600 holley DP, MSD street fire and distributor, 303 top loader trans. (Wish I had a top loader 4 speed.) About everything I got has been donated or bartered for as a budget build. I told my mustang buddies what I was doing and they started donating and trading stuff around to contribute to the cause. I can't wait to get back on it and get it running. My shop air compressor died and I didn't have a way to finish the porting on the heads. I just got me a good compressor and I'm ready to get other work out of the way and get back on it!

I wanted a 4 speed but man I could easily do a 5 speed for the price of a 4 speed. I found the 303 top loader for $100 from a guy that did a 5 speed swap on his 67 mustang. His story was it was his first car and he was restoring it with plans on rebuilding the transmission then wanted to go 4 speed but decided to go 5 speed becauseof cost. I can kinda believe it because he had it cleaned up like new and all boxed up and stuff. I definitely want a good Shifter. I hate a sloppy shifter. I'm wanting a Hurst Master shift but it's gonna have to wait till I get to that point.

Funny thing was the plugs would not clear the pistons because of the twisted wedge design, so I had to cut a "fire channel" through that part of the pistons lol She was a beast! Miss that thing.

This car ran very well and loved the sound.This was all done back when all this stuff first came out. I would see an article in a magazine and they were swapping a 8.8 for a 7.5 or adding 5 lug to a fox body. And I had just done it weeks before. i still have that car today. bought it back in 84.

The B cam deserves respect because of the Lobe Separation Angle. Plus it's great for a stock piston to valve clearance. People think lift is the best..no. that can kill airflow velocity. You want a tight cam to keep cylinder pressures up. Not alot of bleed off.
@rayman1230
@rayman1230 2 жыл бұрын
@Denny an engine loses pressure through overlap; the moment at which the exhaust valve and intake valve are open at the same time. This is part of what’s called dynamic compression. When the the piston is moving to top dead center position there is “bleed off” from the valves being partially open. Less cylinder pressure contained in the cylinder, the less horsepower that’s contained in compression to make said horsepower. A “tighter cam overlap” means less time the valves are left open to bleed off cylinder pressure. The down side to this can be rougher idle, less power down low in off idle operation due to low intake velocity. But the trade of is more of a 2 stroke mind set. When velocity increases and cylinder pressure builds, the power comes on much harder in the desired rpm. The desired rpm is mostly dictated by the camshaft duration. Which is also dependent on multiple factors like total cubic inches of engine, intake manifold runner length, cylinder head cross sectional area of the ports, the valve sizes ect. Most people just through off the self parts together expecting the best performance, but fail to realize, everything works together. Example, Throwing the largest throttle body doesn’t automatically mean more power. Everything in the intake system for air flow is a series of convergent and divergent ducts creating low and high pressure areas to allow for maximum velocity of air without choking off total useable CFM to make power in the desired RPM range. So having to large of a throttle body can actually mean lower airflow velocity into the cylinder, creating a loss of torque in lower rpm. Remember, for street cars, midrange power is desired for quick acceleration from low speeds. This is why smaller displacement engines, without going All out race heads and intake can leave people in the dust on the street. Horsepower is just TORQUE X RPM divided by 5252. The best street car is having the most TORQUE that’s accessible from lower RPM to make the best power in the higher RPM range
@rayman1230
@rayman1230 2 жыл бұрын
@Denny yeah I’d say your right. Every N/A car I’ve personally seen that’s ridiculously fast, advanced the camshaft 2 to 4 degrees mechanically. So the intake valve opening sooner would take advantage of the most vacuum drawling in air from the piston going down, On the intake stroke

They aren't bad for the money, especially in the used market. There is something to be said for the 30 years of technology and research that's been gained in the valvetrain department though. Just look at valve spring tech in the past 5-10 years. But for most people an alphabet cam will be just fine. Really most just want the lumpy idle and a b cam or e cam is pretty hard to beat for idle sound.

Don't forget some of the practical considerations, like the oil pump/distributer drive gear (this is where the letter cams are compatible with the stock oil pump/distributer drive gear, aftermarket cams may not necessarily be forcing you to run a brass oil pump/distributer drive gear and replace it often). Also you need to consider intended usage (cruising/street-strip/hardcore pure race type (drag vs autocross vs road course)) as well as emissions compliance (for cars intended to be licensed for use on public roads).

I got a stage 2 comp cams (XE270HR) so when I installed it, it made a difference but like you said, I sacrificed power at low RPM but gain at high. But once I installed valve springs I recovered that low RPM power or probably gain more than stock. But I definitely love the sound of B cam, a friend of mine he did a combo of gt40's with ported valves and valve springs and an elderblock intake with a 70mm TB all that combo was installed with the B cam and I haven't heard another foxbody chopin like that one. Forgot to mention it had a shorty BBKs headers H pipe and flow masters 40 series

Them GT40 heads are good for nitrus. You got different heads for different set ups. Turbos like to flow so a head with a good exhaust port accommodates that. Nitrus likes to dwell in the combustion chamber. There's were the 40's come in to play. Seen it all to many times were a nitrus car with JTay 40:s knocks it out of the park. It's one of 50 Tussians favorite set ups. You got Andrews, seen that guy on fox cast with a similar set up and hit over 500hp. And ya, he had 40's.

Ran a B303 camshaft back in HS. 91' LX Coupe. 5.0 basically stock, with the B303 and full exhaust. Inevitably ended up with a Panhandle Performance 306, EFI->Carb swap (yes, people really used to do that), with ported heads and IIRC a Z303 camshaft. We weren't KZfaq experts back then. Unfortunately sold the car for pennies back in the Obama era after I purchased a Z06 Corvette. Like you said, it really was all about the 'sound'. There was nothing like a cammed up 5.0, 10-15 years ago.

Great video. I know it is quite old now, but there is truth in what you say. I design camshafts, and I've run the model with the b cam, f cam, e cam, x cam, comp xe 274, anderson n41, TFS stage 1, and a custom grind i designed for trickflow tw170 heads, small tube headers, with a holley systemax 2. All are relatively comparable in hp, and tq. I can tell you each is better than the rest in a given setup. The comp has the advantage of the most aggressive ramp rate of the other ots cams listed. Like you, I could go on forever talking this stuff. My friends call me a motor nerd.

I know someone whos had a foxbody coupe with an E303, old school SVO aluminum heads and a GT40 intake. While I have the TFS 1 cam, GT40X aluminums and GT40 intake. Really not that much of a difference in performance. Hell look at people like Neomustangs running stock Ford parts and stock cams for a turbo setup. That should say enough for itself. If you were looking to build a stroker motor like what AV Boys did with their Grey Mare build then I can see camshaft selection becoming a huge role to match everything else you have and run at its best.

The B-cam is good. How ever the E-cam is good as well. The E cam plus 5 speed of course, has a stronger mid range which is good for street range, and also add a little extra compression and good flowing heads (for me back in the day Would Products Windsor Jr) will make up for the smaller cam across the range and also in the upper range as well. I have surprised plenty of B-CAM guys back in the day. Both cams are great. I'm just more partial to the E-cam. Fly cutting pistons is standard operating procedure for me. Plus right now I'm running a lunati 51014 cam and World Products Windsor Sr. which are milled down to 57cc. Fly cutting is a must and also works.

The last bit about back in the day was so true. Ten hp could cost a win and every little bit mattered. I spent days making my car lighter and stock looking. I went as far as shortened battery cables and thinner wires if possible. The few people that saw my car on the scales couldn't believe it was so light and looked so stock. It won me a lot of money winning by a bumper. It was funny when I went to sell the car I had boxes of parts where I took stuff off and put a gutted part in it's place 😆 I got tired of trying to explain it to idiots wanting to buy a fast car and decided to keep it.

Another reason so many wreck vids on youtube. In experience drivers with 400 hp under their right foot. Back then you broke in little over 200 and built your way up and your handling of the power increased with the gains in power. All that added up to less number of dummies in the ditch. 😆
