| Post subject: | What Cam? |
I am building a 2332 and would like to see what everyone's thoughts are on the cam? I am running dual weber 40's with stock heads that are cut to 48cc's. I am gonna keep the compression ratio around 10:1 as close as possible. It will have a CB performance crank with CB performance 5.500 rods. I am putting the motor in a two seater that is used for trail riding and hill climbing. Any suggestions would be great. By the way I had a great time at the Haspin Hill Climb. Hope this is something that will be an every year thing. |

You will get a bunch of opinions on this question,kinda like asking what's your favorite color,lol.a 110 cam is by far a most popular choice to use.good all around cam.are you running ratio rockers.I'm running dual 40's with super flow heads at 12.5/1 with 1.4 rockers with an fk42 cam and have been really pleased with it.also ran same at 10/1 with an fk7 cam for a few rides before it let go,but I thought it had a lot of low end myself.just thought I'd ad 2 cents for ya.

Like gasman said .....everyone will tell you somthing different but the 110 works real good for a off the self cam . I like a fk-43 with a 1.4 rocker also works real good . |

I was sort of leaning towards the 110 or the C35 which are very similar from what I can see. What about the 120? Maybe this is a dumb question but why run higher ratio rockers? Why not just run a cam with more lift and solid rockers to accomplish the same thing? |

If your going to run stock heads,no matter what cam you run its going to be choked by the heads. I would save some more money and get some heads.A Web-Cam 218 with 1.25 rockers would be a decent choice for now. |

With a 3rib you can run a biger cam like a w120 or fk 43 .With a 6 rib i would go smaller like w110 -c35 or fk42 .Save your $$ for some heads 042 -044 -s\e with dual springs and chomoly retainers. And porting makes the HP . Your stock heads will need cut for bore cut for dual spring retainers and they will still be stock small valve heads . |

this is just me but i would run a engle 110 (ive ran it in a 1679 and im running it in a 2500 and liked it in both) with 1.25 or 1.4 rockers and regardless of how close the specs are on a scat c-35 they dont perform nothing like a engle 110, been there done that also (same everything with only a cam and lifter change), also i agree the stock heads will limit performance but if you put better heads on down the road then the cam is gonna be a limiting factor and the motor will have to be pulled and the case split just to change the cam |

You can't go wrong with a Scat C-95 cam best all round cam out there. anything from 1835 up. I ran a custom grid that matched in a 2.8 type 4 Porsche 914 with Dell 48 duals power from 1500 to 7500 rpm. |
