You need to match your engine build to the use you plan for your Tiger.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div>You are asking for camshaft advice, but a cam should not be chosen in isolation from the rest of the engine's components.They should all be chosen together as you might chose the musicians for an orchestra. They all must play together in harmony. <br><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">My advice is don't over-build you engine. I am attaching the build list of my 331 Stroker, and can tell you it makes way too much power for an enjoyable daily driver. If you are planning any kind of competition, then make sure you choose your engine's internals to give you the best chance of success. Maximum power or torque in some forms of competition is a handicap. Almost any build from stock to fire breathing monster will make you happy, as long as you understand the price you will pay for going to far with power production.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Regardless of what I have written above, considering today's reality with fuel additives and modern oils,, you should install a roller cam to eliminate the problems of ethanol in the fuel, and lack of ZDDP in modern oils taking out your flat tappet cam and lifters. Roller rockers, or at least roller-tipped rockers as well are advisable. My engine build is capable of making nearly 400hp, and it has stock heads and valves, but has been ported and the combustion chambers balanced. So aftermarket heads are not necessary unless you want more than 40o hp.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">The Keith Black pistons in my engine measure out at 9.5:1 cr. and I have installed a 600 cfm 4 bbl <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">If you want more power than my build, go for more compression and a longer duration cam. If you want a nice daily driver, choose less aggressive specs. This build also give me a range of approx. 175 miles/tank.Sometimes very inconvenient!</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Good luck with your engine build, and I wish you success in achieving the kind of performance you are looking for.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Cheers,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Dave in Nova Scotia B382000450<br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 20 November 2017 at 05:36, michael king via Tigers <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:tigers@autox.team.net" target="_blank">tigers@autox.team.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Brent,<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">You looking for a roller cam or solid lifter?

<p>I'm putting together a 331 for my Tiger. Any camshaft suggestions</p>
<p>from others that have this motor? I'm running the close ratio trans</p>
<p>and 3.07 rear gears. There are tons of cams out there these days!<br>

<p> Thanks, Brent<br>
