stk spring pressures are76-84 closed and 194-206 open .just another reason our engines rev fast . alot easier controlling 4 small valves than 2 big sobs

They were pricey, but weren't as bad as the million dollar rings I had to run with the pistons. It's amazing how much a guy can spend on just setting up some pistons! We just went to Pattersons shop in Kansas a few weeks back to pick up a few parts(lol) and wow......splayed valve and sb2 drag race heaven there!:worship:

Hi Paul,

I'm just tossing this out on the wipped sbc C3 cam in your lady's car. If I remember the time correctly, back in 03 to 05 Comp Cams had some trouble with getting bad blanks. The had a bunch of High Energy cams wipe lobes.

jafwiw:o

:cheers:

Paul and Domonic are suspended from coming to my garage 1 year.

What you see in my garage stays in my garage.

No Gararge for you 1 year.:razz:

Interesting... However, the maker of the cam that wiped is unknown - Ami bought it in 04, and the engine had been rebuilt at least once at that time, so who knows?? But, the curious thing is, the damn thing ran for 4 summers for a total of about 3500 miles. So, it isn't like it was infant mortality, I wouldn't think. Ah...Who knows. (Did GM supply the cam blanks to Crane?? :rolleyes:)

The new cam has been run in and little else, as we're now having a fuel pressure issue (did I mention the fire?), which was on my "todo" list, until one day suddenly WINTER arrived with a vengeance and hasn't let go in almost 2 months.

More on that later.
