Anyone Running the Oregon #1341 Regrind?

[wes beem]

Thinking about sending mine in for this one. I'm running a Stock Bottom end 2000 5.9 Magnum with Chinagap Intake, Dougs Long Tube Headers, 904 trans with 3.73 suregrip rearend.

Curious if anyone else has ran this grind and what you think about it? My last motor I ran a custom grind by Lunati.

Looking at the 1341's specs

218/224 @ .050”, 270/276 adv, .482”/.482” lift, 112

Looks like it might be a bit hotter? I still have a lot to learn about cam specs.

a friend is running the oregon 2204 which is about the same lift with more duration on a little tighter LSA. gobs of torque and still very well mannered. basically the same set up minus the headers and gears.

maybe he'll chime in. @remytherat what's the verdict?

The oregon and lunati are so close to each other duration wise you likely wouldn't know the difference in each at idle. Going to likely have the same personalities when running.

The Oregon cam will run a bit stronger through the range with .040 more lift

@RustyRatRod recommended the Oregon Cam Grinding 1280 for my build. 2001 5.9, stock bottom end, Edelbrock 2.02 heads, Air Gap, Doug's headers, 3:23's and a 904 with PTC 9.5 converter.

Cam specs: .215/.223 @.050. .517/.539 using 1.6 rockers, on 110.

Not too far from the #1341.
Pulls hard from the get go. Idles at 17 with manual brakes. I'm happy with it, but may go with 3:55 in the future just for fun. Mostly town, very little highway driving.

Keep us posted on your build.

depending on the core they can also tighten up the LSA as well as there also being more specs available that are not on the website. I called in and talked with them once the cores arrived. I have yet to finish putting a car together to run them but working on it.

Yeah, their web site hasn't been updated in like twenty years. Something about they lost their web master and nobody knows the passwords and other info. Ken will send you the updated grind lists, though.

That sounds promissing!

Running the oregon .482" cam on a 110LSA. Very much a torque and street driving cam. Idle is relatively smooth, but definitely a little rougher than stock. A bit of a dog way down low with 2.76s, but not in a way that anything else isn't. Would recommend, though if I had a little more compression and a little less highway driving to do, I would not be afraid of more duration. Gears coming soon...
