With lobes of 8mm or higher, I could not find valve springs to cope with the high valve lift. I bought a G5 camshaft from Schneider, they call it the 320-F grind (duration is 268° at 0.050", timing is 57-83 87-53 , installation figure is then 103° :is that the same as the G5 grind?) with 0.340"/8.6mm cam lift and that makes for a valve lift of 12.9mm with the 1.55 rocker arms. With 1.65 rockers , valve lift would be 14.2mm and I could not find valve springs for that lift. The valve springs I used are part no 281003-063.20 from Summit (Isky), 320lb/inch spring rate. They recommend 0.45"/11.43mm (1.250" - 0.800"from closed to full open position, so it is about 1.4mm more in my engine, but there is no problem concerning coil binding : the installed height is a 1mm more than 1.250 , the pressure in closed position is lower of course, but still 34kgs (105kgs at full lift) an that seems to be enough till 7500 rpm</div><div>Racetorations have a race cam with 7.6mm cam lift, probably that would work with 1.65 rocker arms.

Hi all, I’m building a TR6 race engine and have a set of 1.65 ratio roller rockers from Goodparts. Any recommendations for a suitable camshaft? I will be putting in cam bearings. <div><br><div>Thanks, Mike<br><br><br></div></div>
