These are the specs from Crowers catalog:

Lift (with 1.6 rocker): Intake: .531 Exhaust: .531

Torque all over the tach! Brutal bottom end.

But do you think all that work would be worth it?
Would it even be much better than the stock Cobra cam?

Whats the rest of your mods? stock GT40 heads and cobra intake?

I believe the stock Cobra cam specs out at
209/209 @ .050
270/270 advertised (?)
.479/.479 (<---I dunno if the lift values are measured at 1.6 or 1.7?)
118.5 LSA


To me, That Crower is definately a step up from a stock Cobra cam. Even with the stock GT40 heads and Cobra intake I think it would work pretty good.

Yup it's got stock heads and intake.
I'm just looking for a little something extra.
Nothing too crazy, since it is my daily driver.

I just thought about this... since the Cobra's used a 1.7 rocker, that Crower had its lift rated with 1.6 rockers.
So with a 1.7 rocker, it would be like .564 lift!

I know Piston to Valve clearance has more than lift values that come into play (ie. cam timing, duration etc), but that would be something that would need some more research/info on. Im not too positive on the answer to this dillemma.

Or you could sell the 1.7s for some 1.6s for use with a cam like that. Or look for a cam, I know Comp Cams has a few grinds available made to use with 1.7 rockers.
