    Default cower cam question?

    I was thinking of useing these cams in my build. I'm doing my B18c1 with cp 12.5-1's. I'm not wanting to go real big due to plan of useing nos(75 shot). I know first thought is..12.5 and spray? Last motor LOVED it. Same setup with completely stock B16 head ran 7.6's in the 1/8th.

    Has anyone used them? Would they be a decent cam?

    Stage 1

    *Basiclly alittle bigger than a CTR profile.*

    but personally if I was running 12.5:1 C/R, and I will be shortly... I wouldn't waste the money on such a mild cam because you really wont even be able to take full advantage of the increased compression... i would upgrade the valve springs and look for something a little more aggressive...

    throw some bc 4's or something in that thing with a larger primary than your normal skunk2 stg2 and other stg 2 cams. it should make is way easier to tune it on the spray with out that big ass jump when kick kicks in. the crower 402b is also a good choice it has the slightly bigger primarys
