Engnbldr 268 Cam

In the mail!
I've heard good and bad things
The engine its going in has 20 over pistons, and OS valves
What am I looking at getting out of it?
And from the sound of it, the cam doesnt give more horsepower, just adjusts the powerband lower correct?
I'm curious to see how it turns out
Opinions?

Lets us know how it does...

But dont go by the seat of the pants, if you can, do some quantitive testing such as timed acceleration from 30 to 60mph in 4th gear and retest after the cam and post the results.


It will be interesting to see what the difference may be.

Haha whats the point then? No im just kidding. This sounds great I'm planing to either build my 22 or replace it with that 3.4, this will be next year though. As Im still pieceing my striaght axle together. Good luck and Im sure you'll notice a power difference.

Well right now shes even slower than usual, due to the leaky head gasket, piston slap and rod noise!
So I dont think comparing would do a whole lot of good haha
Old booger is going downhill
Thats why I'm building a new one
