    Custom ground cam.

    That is exactly the combination Tracey Varns did. He had a new cam ground and installed a modern turbo. He said he was getting over 350hp reliably. He also had installed ARP head studs and the new style (12 point ) rod bolts. I have posted the part numbers and prices from ARP for there studs and...

    Custom ground cam.

    There was some talk awhile ago about different rockers, but it came to nothing. So the only way is to regrind the cam and yes it is a pushrod engine. Now Tracey's engines uses a roller cam but it needs a complete work around on the engine to accomplish this. He just has is own blocks built from...

    Custom ground cam.

    The problem with machining a new manifold is we first have to take care of the coolant pathways. The manifold acts like a large collector gathering all the pathways into one.

    Custom ground cam.

    I totally agree ! Cam engineering has come light years in the last 2 decades alone. Considering our cams where designed in the 50's and the last ones in the 60's that is a lot of technology to catch up to. I have wondered if someone could come up with a new Hydraulic Head piston or cam to...

    Custom ground cam.

    Your right Chris, it was the Stanadyne 627 or 629 injection pump along with a newer "3LM466" turbo. The cam used in the racing multifuel was ground by a company back east called "Vogel" engineering and cost around $300.00 . The guy I was talking to "Tracey Varn" had made up to around 500 hp...
