How big is your cam?

I threw away a 3/4 cam...only kept 1/4 of it.
Was talkin to this cat today at the gas station...kept on talking about how may cam can't be an off the shelf item...it sounded too much like a 3/4 cam, and they are custom made....
Just made me think of my 1/4 cam pic here.


heh heh heh

My cam, well im blessed! I thank you guys to stay out of my personal affairs!!! LOL

Really im not sure what size cam is in my 283, but its big, the lope was to the point of shutting the engine. Once I installed a HEI, I had no more stall problems. I need to replace it, I have no bottom end torque

Longhornmail, I think your cam is beyond the help of Viagra.

re: How big is your cam?

I took a 5 piece cam out of a 409 once. I don't think any piece was that big though. You win.
