So much for that motor.....

Can you run lock outs with VSR cams? Thing is I kinda like knowing the car will pull timing to try to save its ass if need.... Although Im sure thats a fine line too.... Also, what retainers and keepers did you go with or which do you recommend?

Yes you can run lockouts with the VSR cams but you must tell your tuner you have installed either (limiters or lockouts) so he can account for that in the tune.

I am running Comp Cams 26125-24 high load valve springs and 700-24 steel retainers.

.20 over 8 times plus a 3.800 stroke gets you to 336 lol... Thats what your motor is too.... Hey, help me pick cams will ya? lol

Cole, can I re-use the stock cam followers going with these cams???? Should I replace them with new OEM?

 

[94tbird]

i think your math is off.

4.6L is 281 cubes
I have a .020 bore 3.75 Stroke Crank and am 300 Cu in which is just about a 5.0
a 3.8 stroke will put you at 302 cubes.

336 cubes would be GT500 5.4 Territory


As far as cams, BBR stage 2 hands down

Thinking about those too... I think they require lockouts right?
BTW, I am wrong.... Forgot a 0..... It will be a 305 if it can be bored out.... Honestly, I think the block is done... The det damage is pretty deep...

 

[94tbird]

0.02 bore, not 0.2 lol

I reused mine, but they were in excellent condition as the engine was non failed and had less than 10,000 miles on it when it was forged. I did replace all the lash adjusters though.

You just went with OEM right?

 

[NjsGT]

After looking at the det damage closer, 2 cyclinders have det divets that do apear to be deeper then .010.... Looks like Ill be taking my stock block down instead and have that recondition and built up...... Man, good thing I didnt sell it...

Whats difference between the 700-24 retainers and the 710-24 retainers ? On Comps site I see them suggesting the 710-24 retainers for 26125-24 springs.

http://www.compcams.com/catalog/COMP2011/pdf/COMP_Catalog_2011_71.pdf

Is your cam the reason you went with the 700-24 ?

Thanks

 

[Fallenauthority]

I believe one part # is titanium retainers and the other is steel.

 

[TurboX]

Just spoke to comp, same part. New number vs old number

Cant believe they are there until 8pm on a Friday
