Stock cams with a bored over 3vz?
My truck blew its HG last night and one of my buddys has a 3vze block and pistons that are bored 50 over. Im going to do a full rebuild on either block, stock or bored block.
So i was wondering. Can I use the stock cams for this or do I have to get some better cams?

Crower Equipment Mfg. in San Diego, CA they don't list 3vze cams on their web site but you can call and have a custom regrind done for $200 i recommend the 272 degree durration. i have 264's and probably could have got more out of the 272's. they cut my base circles a little to small so i had to order all new shims from toyota for $100.

What he said but remember anything bored over 40 is considered iffy, you get to .50 and cylinder walls are getting thin and our hot running engines run a little hotter due to the lack of heat dissipation.
Just something to consider - if you hven't done .40 yet, why jump all the way to .50?

My friend bought a complete engine that was 50 over and he never used it so he said I could use it.

Thats a good idea olharleyman. I still have to rebuild both blocks but i just might do that. I will get the 50 over block and pistons for free too. I just need to pay for all the new parts, bearings, machine shop work etc...
DOA racing has cams for the 3vz, ive never heard of em before tho. i dont know what happened to weasy2k.

camo, i got mine from crower for $200. regrinds always make the base circle smaller tho so you need new shims from toyota which is $100. i have 264's and wish i would have gotten 272's. i notice the powerband kick up at 3k rpm more than it used to.

Tracey,
Hey whenever you get the cams redone to 272 or even 264 do you have to get the heads done too? i called Delta cams and the guy told me that i had to getthe heads done if i got the cams regrinded to 260 degree duration...
