Just to throw a wrench in the spokes here, (for thought) , I think on that 3 cam test that another cam should have been run, A off the shelf comp cs 294s-10 Magnum.
Tested in 3 installed positions. 102 in CL, 107 in CL and 110, and see how the evil off the shelf cam does in this motor. I bet it will do very well and show its very adjustable nature by just "dialing it in" for the torque curve you want best.

Re: Rule of Thumb Accuracy
Testing always shows the need for more tests, but such a cam would have been an excellent addition.F-BIRD'88 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 10, 2018 1:17 pm Just to throw a wrench in the spokes here, (for thought) , I think on that 3 cam test that another cam should have been run, A off the shelf comp cs 294s-10 Magnum.

As DV said it would also have been a better test if each of the 3 cams had been tested to find the best installed phasing for each, then compare against their straight up phasing tests.

Ok, that's cute. Jon carries on ad nauseum about how someone is wrong but can't/won't say why they're right because they're bound by multiple OEM NDAs.Warp Speed wrote: ↑Tue Jul 10, 2018 1:42 pm
At least Jon knows what he is talking about. Your 2003 story says allot about your knowledge!
Actually, the way you bash Jons approach says allot about your lack of knowledge in today's performance field......
Then you mention how easy it is for the aftermarket to improve on the design that supposedly took 20,000 hours of simulation (that Jon was apparently involved with) and all the sudden he's an aftermarket engineer too. Again, bound by an NDA.
