stock cam?

faststangs96 · 04-08-2008, 12:41 PM

what is the intake and exhaust lift on a stock 93 5.0 lx camshaft. i have this cam but dont know the what kind it is....any help would be good. thanks-Nathan

High .430s low .440s with 1.6 rockers
I believe it is supposedly .444

The 1.7 Cobra rockers put it at .470s

That is valve lift not lobe lift.

word .444/.444

cobra cam is also smaller than an HO cam, but they come with 1.7s stock so it is effectively "larger"

if you have stock heads, stick with a stock cam and slap some cheap crane 1.7s on there. You can retard it a few degrees is you have the front cover off.

gt40 family of intakes with a retarded stock cam and boltons will get you 245+ at the wheels and good enough for 12s with a darn good driver and tire

If you are asking about the cam specs, I have a list of cam specs also the part numbers.
