Cam choice in a ERST engine.

Postby XR2iT on Sun Jun 22, 2003 6:54 pm

Got a spare engine to rebuild so I am going to do it properly. I know what to do but.. I want to know about cam choices. What are the options and what do they do to the engine response. Unlike most of you guys I have to run a restrictor on my turbo which limits the air supply and hence revs. Therefore a cam that works better up the rev range is no good to me. Is there a bigger torque option?

Cheers
