wt headers can i get away with this cam??
#2
I did run a crane 139651 244 - 256 with CMI elbow tops with no trouble with reversion. Not saying it do not have any just did not cause any problems. There is a lot of variables to say what will and will not work besides just the cam.
I ended up going with another crane but I looked hard at the same cam you asked about. Curious what it is going in and how it works out.

Well I can confirm that with a standard Bravo type wet system that we don't know of a way to accommodate these cam spec's at .050. A dry tail pipe system will work or a custom long tail pipe discharging water just prior to the transom may work . Caution make sure if someone says they can do it with a standard wet tail pipe that you have some recourse when/if it doesnt work and destroys your engine.

Has anyone ever use this cam. I've always seen it around and looks OK with the exception of the higher duration. Just wondering???
