Reply to "Questions regarding George's 275/285 Custom Street Cam Profile"

George. The second cam (single pattern) is very very close to the Comp Magnum 288R cam. Part number 32-771-9. I had that cam for a couple years. It run great. I shifted it at 7200 rpm
And ran a best of 11.54. The distributor gear portion of the cam got chewed up so I couldn't use it anymore. I replaced it with a custom cam that would be the equivalent to a magnum 280R, but Comp never made one. It has 236/236 duration and I think .609 lift but don't remember exactly. I believe a 112 LSA. At the time I also took off the CC heads and put on my OC heads and smaller 2400 stall converter. The car ran a best of 12.59. I'm not home right now so I can't look at the cam card. I like the cam as it lets me chug along in 4th gear with a locked converter about 1600 rpm without bucking and kicking. It has an burble at idle that I wish was a bit lopier.

Your first cam sounds like it might be between the Comp 288r and my current cam.

I'll have to wait a week or so until I get home to check.

I think I like the first cam. It would go into the car with 4v CC heads and a 3000 stall lock up converter. 11.9x would be perfect.
