Rockers vs BBR Stage 1

[ford20]

I know for a fact the 127200 NSR stage 2s and the Detroit Rockers have very similar specs. Rockers just have a tighter LSA and more duration.

Do you know the specs of the N/A grind cam for the Detroit Rockers?

My best 1/4 mile so far is 13.185 and best 1/8 mile is 8.399. Now these times are with D/A of over 1500'. Last time I dynoed my car I was at 322 RWHP and 311 RWTQ. Which is about about a 20 hp and 0 tq increase.
I can't wait to see how my updated Amazon Tune does at the track. The comp cams will have have the least aggressive lope than the D/R, hot rods or BBR.

I wonder what L/Ts and a bigger CAI would do for you ... Hmmmm

I picked up great power from the bbr stage 1 cams. Seems to get great power in a applications I have heard of. Their tunes for their cams are spot on.

I would love L/T but I am in Cali so they are probably out of the question.

You have an auto, please expect to buy a high stall converter to make any use of the BBR stage 1's. I am speaking from experience here.

My car ran high 12's before a the BBR CAM/PTC 3k OEM converter install and the best it ran after was a 13.30. I lost 2-3 tenths from my 60'. The replacement converter I bought is getting built/shipped this week. I'll be sure to post track results.

The car dyno'd what it did before a 4.10 gear install, so it did have a power increase.

Do you happen to have any track times or dyno numbers? Also any difference on sound compared to DR' (Assumption made by difference in youtube videos to person)



By perfection I mean that people either gain 30 hp or they only gain 20 or somtimes even gain 35-40. It seems like the tune is very finky on them or the cam is just hard to tune with your car even though its made by FRPP

I dont have any dyno numbers but all of my runs have been on the stock tires and stock rims with the stock exhaust and stock converter.

I run consistant 1.95 +/- 60's and 12.9s @ 106.5-107.5mph from idle.

The sound?
With the stock exhaust it is muted but I will soon be adding LT's and o/r x pipe not sure if I will ditch the stock mufflers but that all depends. Here is the comp 127200: No revs, I just wanted the idle recording.

I like the sound of all three DR, HR, BBR stage 1 and you wont go wrong with any of them.

Good luck.
