Re: Cams in California
There are many cams out there approved by CARB (California Air resources Board). You're going to need to narrow it down. What do you want from a cam? What engine/transmission combo?
We're Comp "bigots" here. IMO, the best line of modern cam profiles. Jim |

Re: Cams in California
a4 as in AUDI?
ummm, wrong forum im afraid... unless you mean V8 (350 or 305?) with an a(utomatic) 4 even if this is the case, you still need to provide more details such as usage current mods ect... |

Re: Cams in California
He hasn't returned to provide the asked for details. Pretty sketchy to base a recommendation on non-information... 00 SS, please respond!

Re: Cams in California
not ness. the biggest cam, right? the biggest cam will give you the most powa at high RPM's but if his situation is to NOT rev er up, a big cam would probably lower the power output.
theres also those cams that supposedly have 'lots of hp' but they lose so much down low, that in a quarter mile race they lose to a 'weaker' cam..with more torque.., hp down low
