I have an 86 with alluminum heads with a melling hi performance cam has the same camshaft specs as the crane 114132 .. my Factory heads are ported & polished also with polished combustion chambers as well.. Heads have been shaved about 020 the car is set at the factory 6degree setting and to me it feels like it doesnt pull as hard as it did b4 the cam ...
i was thiking that with the new cam the setting should remain the same but may be it changes can someone shed som lite on this please lol.. i also have the plugs gaped on 032 .. i was thikingin bout setting on on 8 degrees and leaving it and moving the gap back to 035. the thing is i dont want to advance the timing to hi and kill my engine cause i know that overly advanced timing may bring better performance but can also kill rod bearings.. so if any of u guys have this cam how about telling me how uve got your carsset up .. wit this cam i figured it shoud have been nite and day .. my car has the following in addion to the head and cam work! 160 Stat , Deleted cats , Hooker Aero chamber mufflers K&N air filter Accell super coil and ported & polished lower intake .
