Vt custom camshafts

[1989Gt.]

Does anyone know anything about these stage two cams?

Intake was 226 with .393 lift
exhaust was 236 with .393 lift

How would those be on a stock set of b heads? and ill upgrade the springs as well forged bottom end, on a 10.8:1 compression ratio.

That is some tiny lift-dont think you'll need aftermarket springs for those

 

[1989Gt.]

Oh really? will it help out tho?

Oh really? will it help out tho?

What are the rest of the specs? And it will help out some but a bigger set will be help out more. What are your mods/plans

 

[1989Gt.]

I just wanna make low 300s on stock b heads

 

[1989Gt.]

Why other specs do I need

Seems like a lot of work for low 300s. I'd get a used s-trim and call it a day before I went to the hassle of cams.

Any reason you picked those cams? Are you set on remaining N/A?

hasn't VT been out of business for a while- so these are used I take it and with a decent price tag?

 

[1989Gt.]

Yes a excellent price of 300 bucks and I'm also buying upr fuel rails

 

[1989Gt.]

Also I have flat tops should I worry about contact

 

[encasedmetal]

the duration is what may be a problem with PTV clearance, so degree carefully- time to do some research OP

 

[1989Gt.]

Ok but for 300 they should be a good buy i could prob resell them pretty quickly dont you think if they wont work with my flattops?

 

[1989Gt.]

How do I check the duration I know the mathmatic formula with a dial indicator for lift bit is there. One for duration

I dont know a whole lot about cams for our cars but I can tell just from the lift that those cams aren't worth much. In the world of mustangs you get what you pay for. If a set of 4v cams sounds cheep and too good to be true, they prob are. I got 306rwhp from my 96 without ever cracking a valve cover. It can be done. Don't waste your time with these

 

[1989Gt.]

Well I dont want a super loud cam anywys, and if its better then stock then ill get them

 

[SVTPete83]

It might be better than stock. But not 300 plus install better IMO. Now if you can put em in yourself. Cool. But to gain maybe 5 hp. You're wasting your time

 

[1989Gt.]

You think that's all there worth over mark 8 cams

 

[SVTPete83]

Depends on the duration I suppose. I personally could not install cams. I do know that I got my complete vortech kit for 1200 bucks and put down 480 to the wheels with it. Cams were the last thing on my mind lol

 

[1989Gt.]

Yea i understand buy im gonna be spraying nitrous eventually too.but i just forged and bumped up my compression as well so I figure a mild cam might give me 330 whp then spray a 75 shot and get 360whp

 

[encasedmetal]

here's the thing OP- if you want to get them, then get them. I have big cams and love them. however: you will need adjustibility when degreeing the cams, LT headers and rear gears to accompany the cams or your rewards for install will be minimalized. per the cam specs however, without having valve reliefs in the flatop pistons you want to use, the small lift is key and you you will be able to clear the pistons. I wish the intake dur. were larger or the exhaust dur. smaller though.
