98 cobra has stock cams now.. bout to put th400 built motor in the car... Has t76 with billet wheel, .81 a/r

My question is are aftermarket cams are worth it on turbo car?

What cams are u using? And whats the specs?

This is going to be a street car with prob 20psi

 

Pistons need to be fly cut for a turbo cam. Spend the money now when building the engine to at least get them cut. Stock cams will support quite a bit of power. I run 20 psi with a 76mm with no issues on the street.

 

I still gotta buy pistons so i was gonna have them notched anyway but how much power do u put down on stock cams?

1300-1500 is a hard pill to swallow for aftearket if i can make good power on stock cam

 

MMR stage III here

 

Whats the specs on that mmr stage 3? And do u feel it was worth the loot and can u tell the car cas cams sound wise? I know sound shouldnt be a factor when buying but im not waste money if i cant tell a sound difference

 

Well, based on what you said above...do you want the "cammed" sound or do you want to make power and have an efficient engine combination? You're not wasting money by purchasing custom ground cams that were designed for your power/torque goals. With a turbo car, all you really want to hear is that high pitched squeal at full tilt.....LOLOLOLOL!!!

 

been told by multiple people that the 96-98 cams will support around 1000RWHP. Personally for a street car I think its a waste of money.

Sorry, but buying cams for just the sound is just retarted...

 

True but does it warrent a 1300 price tag for that ? Deltaforce cams will take stock cams and build them to whatever specs for 60/each and u just tell them the cam spects u want

 

I understand and agree with what your sayin. I just thought for a street car it would be overkill.

 

BTW
Mark:
I have send you a few pm's & no reply yet..

 

Would you reccomend aftermarket cams for a street car? and if so what are your reccomendations?

 

Well my car is a street car and track car but why ls it that u can get a pushrod cam for 200 and not a set of 4 mod motor cams for 800? That makes no sense

 

3 years of R & D and thousands of dollars in testing.

 

How is 150 HP not worth $1300.? Guys spend $4K to buy a vortech or procharger to gain about the same amount of power.

 

I think he just used 150hp gain as an example, i wouldnt think u would pick that up off just cams

Someone correct me if im wrong... Or whats some real life gains off cams
