Then the need for a "custom cam" comes up. Problem is, all these cams that come from MK, appear to be almost a once size fits all! A 548ci gets fairly close to the same cam, as a 496/502! Almost all the same LSA, almost all the same ICL, durations within a few degrees, lift within a certain range, etc. A AFR headed 9.8:1 540, gets almost the same cam as a 9:1 GM iron headed 540, with a full point of compression difference too! How many guys had to be schooled on the importance of static compression, and its effects over the phone. The recommendation of using the thinnest head gasket possible to maximize the combo. lol Bob should go into selling Kirby vacuum cleaners. I am really disappointed and feel bad for the many who have fallen into the Bob trap. Has bob addressed any of these known issues? Can't wait to see thread MT is going to start. I think it's wise also MT is keeping names out of it for many reasons unless they don't care. I think the list will grow. Some not only got screwed but also got their pride fked with bad. |
