I have no idea what camshaft this is, so I was hoping somebody could identify it for me.

Kevin,
I'm really happy with the Web 86A in my backup engine. I bet whetever Jake hooks you up with will be similar. My domed pistons did need valve reliefs cut into them. Make sure you check your valve to piston clearances while you are putting it together. I just checked out the SCCA Central Division standings and Kevin Groot is holding onto tenth place in E Production. It looks like a very competetive class in CENDIV with 24 drivers. With an improved backup engine for the last two races you should be in good shape. I assume you're not going to RA. BTW, what are you doing to upgrade the carbs to keep up with the rest of your improvements? |
