For a good stroker "in-between" cam, (for those who want more than just "slightly" warmed over), but still need all around good street performance AND are limited on their converter or rear end gears, etc. this is a great way to go. If the car is going to see the dragstrip more than once or twice a year, we'd probably go a step or two above this one. In a 500+ stroker setup, you'll get a nice wide power band from just off idle to about 5500 RPM, and you could probably squeak by with using a stock converter, although a 2200+ wouldn't hurt. With 231 degrees of duration at .050" on the intake and 237 on the exhaust, these are ground on a 110 degree lobe separation angle. We'd use this with a performer RPM intake (not quite big enough for single planes yet) and at least 9 to 1 compression. We feel the three bolt timing chain attaching system is far superior to the single bolt, and so we offer this cam to fit only three bolt timing chain sets. We carry them (along with the required bolts, etc.) on our timing chains page. Don't forget to order Comp lifters and break-in lube (shown below) with your new cam! These items are considered essential to ensure that your cam has the longest possible life and is fully covered under Comp's warranty policy. And, since this is Comp we're talking about, you can be assured of two things: The product is 100% made in the USA, and the quality is second to none. This cam requires 10 Degree locks/retainers and double springs. Use our 145-1002 locks (with 11/32" valves), our 145-1003 retainers and our 145-1013 springs.
