It is cut on 110 but has some good duration . Throw of the dice but i think if you go easy on total timing you should be ok. But my gut feeling is it is a border line cam for that much compression with 91 R+M. I would go for it. Good luck on your build!! That should work good with a stick and at least 3.7 in the tail.<br /> <br /> <small>[ 2014-04-03, 04:49 AM: Message edited by: Tom Renzo ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>05s197</b> <br /><small>Member # 13235</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2014,3,3,14,57,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> thanks at the moment its a C4 but I might be doing a T5 swap soon and I will be doing 3.70 gears sometime soon. the longblock is brand new, 0 miles. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>4IDFOX</b> <br /><small>Member # 9921</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2014,3,3,21,12,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Have a custom cam specked, you will be happy.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flowtechinduction.com/small-block-windsor-1/" target="_blank">http://www.flowtechinduction.com/small-block-windsor-1/</a> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>05s197</b> <br /><small>Member # 13235</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2014,3,6,23,54,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> the link I put up was what comp cams recommended to me.
