    What's the difference. CAMSHAFT

    Re: What's the difference. CAMSHAFT So if I have the crankshaft machined back a little further so the timing chain will fit can I use a non balance cam? The builder doesn't have it. I think it was used on the thrashed engine that was there when mine was. This guy doubled his verbal quote to...

    What's the difference. CAMSHAFT

    The machinist I took my engine to to have him bore and machine the block. Spec the cam journals and crankshaft to see if they were still good etc. Turned out he "never got my cam from me" That was kind of hard because the short block was together when he got it. So I now need a new cam. I...

    Ok so far I have located the part numbers for the pistons and rods I'm going to use. What is a common Mild cam that's being used these days with mildly modded engines. I'm hunting for a 350+ hp range. I'm pretty sure that the stock cam would work but what other options are out there? Also...

    95 vortech 4.3 turbo?

    Pretty much all internals are different. But when going with Turbos if you don't want to buy a Turbo Cam you can get away with the STOCK cam.
