Degreeing a Cam, or not.....
Well, in my mind the answer to that is obvious.
It’s the C/L where you would have installed the cam if you had your choice.
If you were taking the advice of the cam grinder, and they said “put it in at 108”, and you verified that’s where it was before putting the timing cover on, then this thread wouldn’t even exist.
This thread was started because the OP feels the performance of the car is not up to par, and since he doesn’t know where the cam is installed he’s questioning whether or not that’s where the missing performance lies.
If he knew the cam was installed as per the cam suppliers recommendations, I suspect there would be a different slant to this thread.
I sold the Comp equivalent to that cam to someone with a 512 with TF 240 heads.
He had it dynoed and made very good power.
Could you put a bigger cam in it? Sure.
But the cam isn’t the major fault in the package that’s holding the car in the 12’s.
