he said he can notice it so it must have either more power, more torque or a shift in power band down lower...i'd imagine the first two tho

i fitted a 1004-14 to a customers car also had the head ported localy
i was a little let down by the power increase but the customer was happy. you could feel a power increase from around 3000rpm up i should have dyno figures by the end of the week will be nice when the next one comes in as he is going for a wolf 3D as well so we can put a real cam in it. probably a sure cams cam |

yea its an increase in toque and power. i havent given it any stick yet. i had it in 3rd going up a hill up to about 90 less tha half throttle and i could feel it kick in. it kept on pulling consistently too! neither i or the car wanted to stop!! in a few days ill give it a real good run and see how it goes.

forgot to say
the idle is fine. sounds stock. its a bit over the place atm coz the ecu is adjusting. everytime i slow down at the lights it would stall or nearly stall but it was already gettin better.

 Hows the cam going after a few days and km? Did the base idle need to be taken up at all and did u need shims for lifters? Hope everythings good as i hope to get the 1636 next month for my eb2 auto.

so this profile your talking about is suitable for the tickford motor? i ask beacuse i remeber early back people saying this type of cam makes no difference.

yeah it works fine for me its surprising how much more power it gives from just changing a metal rod

c'mon, give that metal rod some credit. afterall, isn't pretty much everything in your engine JUST a metal-something-or-rather.

this profile adds real good torque from 2500 onwards, n also, for me, after the car warms up, wen i slow down eg traffic lights, it wants to stall, n wen u turn the steering wheel its more prone to (eg reversing up a driveway is just murder (stall it all the time reversing up a friends driveway)...this cam makes my revs all hunt too, all in all, this cam is powerfull jsut cruising round in 2nd gear down low u can feel it wants to move
