what would be the best cam for a t04e 3" exhaust but using a std ecu? and this may sound stupid, but does the head have to be removed to get the cam out?

get a cheap microtec patch and run an 818b dont need to remove the head, just have to jack the front of the engine up so u can get the cam out without hitting the radiator

Patch when you plan to change cam, are you thinking off updating the head in anyway? ie(valves)

Can you regrind a standard cam to 1147c cam specs ? Or not ?

Mmmm, I think thats the way I'm going to go, everyone I talk to say that cam is the meanest cam and can make some impressive power figures from it.

i had an 1147 in my brock then changed it and made one up. Everyone that has heard my car idle now just starts laughing and rekon theyve never heard anything lumpier.. most important thing is it works with my setup! Motto of the story do some research, ring around and dont go on what every tom **** and harry says. And no i dont want 1million pm's asking specs im just tryna tell you do some research before you jump on the same bus everyone else is on

Can u use an n/a cam for the regrind? And do u need to machine the lifter blocks?

dont go on what every tom **** and harry says. i didnt think my advice was that bad.... imo people get too caught up in wow thats idling rough as it must be fast! ---------- Post added 21-09-10 at 22:30 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by poohkies [View Post] Can u use an n/a cam for the regrind?

What about just getting the n/a cam ground to just a tad more mild than factory turbo specs ? Or would it not be worth all the drama ? Have been told turbo cams can get to 250kw with out alot.

wade 1147c cam, made by clive cam billet part # 235A $350 front door
