[Fot] A cam for Rick

[yellow04]

Rick,

Needing to beat the guys at the pointy end of the pack is what racing is 
all about, right?

If your engine has the billet bottom end you describe, you can safely 
run pretty much any cam you desire. Plenty of options out there, from 
mild to wild. You are going to get a bunch of opinions out of this 
thread!

First data point for you, the majority of the front running 4 cylinder 
TR's in the east run the old Gillanders #24. It's a beast, makes power 
up to and beyond 7 grand. You let the revs drop below 4 grand and it is 
game over for that lap! I can tell you multiple Kastner Cup winners had 
that cam in their car when they took home the Cup.
