any feed back on this profile would be great ..... and what is engine idle like...?

the hole deal will consist off a rebuilt bottom end (injected 302) with 650 double pumper edelbrock torker manifold gt40p heads wade 869 cam spings too suit high enegy sump and oil pump 3000 converter and 3.9 diff..... anyone with something similer feed back would be great tips and suggeton too im new too V8 ....

and will this cam bog down at lower revs in this combo? im also unsure if im gettin the gt40p's too $$$ will this cause a cam off that size to perform like s*#t..?

Why not post a link so we don't have to Google...
Generally any cam timing over 220 @50 and lobe centres smaller than 112 the engine starts getting alittle grumpy.. Esp with EFI and 5.0 capacity...
Lift over .500 is almost wasted with std Ford heads...As a general rule the better flowing heads can breath better with over .500 lift...
As with most things there are variables ....
The SVO E303 ROLLER cam goes gang busters with carb
220 /220 110 lobe centre and .498 lift....
Yes its 110 lobe centre so idle is quite lopey....

lol dont spend much time on the computer not very good at it... yer i dont really understand cam grinds that much but it will be on a fairly free flowing engine and will be at about 4000 5600 revs most off its live and cause its carbareted and not streetable id prefer a nice lumpy angry idle?

just looking at that profile it seems pretty good it looks to suit my combo to a T have you hade any expirence with this brand....? also lookin at the crane 2040 i it would also perform well...

crane 2040

The Crane 2040 is the E303

fort thy looked similer did'nt think two company would grind the same profile...? it looks to be the one i want anyways...

has anyone used this profile...? anyone.? anyone.? ANYONE.?

I have an E303 cam you can have for $200...
Its a roller cam.. Is your block roller or flat tappet ??
Can be alittle tricky with EFI ? But spot on with carb..Havingsaid that I had NO idle isues or drivability with this cam.....
It sure acccellerrates hard in mid range, due to 110 LSA ... Compared to 2031 ...

It certainly does!!
I am running the this cam in an EFI application.
With carb the idle would be really lumpy i'd imagine, mine was before tune, but with the twEECer and a good tune it really smoothed it out, although it does sometimes stall when slowing down and clutching in.
Definately has an awesome midrange and maintains power through to redline, also is excellent down low cruising, 5th gear overtaking @ 100km/h is a breeze now.

wow ppl talkin lol... sounds good sound just like what i need i was a little bit worryed about down low torque but it sounds good ...

mine is a roller block i think (91 nc) um ill have to let you no im on holidays at the moment not much cash flow lol do you no what there worth new? if you still have it in a few weeks ill prob have a look...

$410 new for the Crane 2040. You'd be better off buying EBXR's cam 2nd hand, seeing as its a roller they don't really suffer from wear. I'd be inclined to ditch the Torker for a Performer RPM or Weiand Stealth... Either will give better torque & mid range power than the Torker.
