[Spridgets] Getting ready to pull engine and change cam

[Steven Guterman]

Hi all,

Well my clutch problem is back.  It seems that when the bugeye sits for a
week and is cold it works for about 20 minutes. After that it fails to fully
disengage, making it impossible to shift once stopped..  I will check a few
more things this weekend, but I am mentally getting ready to bite the bullet
and just pull the lump out and see what is wrong.

This will lead to replacing the cam, which I should have done initially.

Question is which cam?

Engine is a 1275 with +30 over pistons and stock high compression head.
Exhust is into a 3-1 header with dual HS2 carbs.

Looking for good drivability with more umph.

>From reading around it seems that the following cams are all reasonable
choices, but some of the information I found is inconsistent.  Would love to
hear if anyone is using any of the following: Having a real hard time
differentiating.

Kent 266 or mp266
Kent 276
Piper 270
Swift SW5-07


Thanks

Steven
