[TR] Long post: Cam failure - recommendations: need to select

[aribert neumann]

Tomislav:

It was a new chilled iron blank.  I am not unhappy with the performance,
just wondering if there is a better grind out there for me.  You are the
second person to mention Wishbone - I'll have to look into that cam.

I have been pleased with the GP2 cam in my car - I was really looking
forward to pairing it with my distributor after having it recurved by
Advance DIstributor this spring - I think that there is a bit more
performance and mileage yet to be found in the car.

Aribert, sorry for your troubles.



I'm just curious, when you say "new GP2 grind cam from Goodparts" do you
mean a GP-2 made on a new chilled iron blank or a regrind? Richard Good used
to sell both.



Good Luck. I'm running the GP-2 and believe it suits me well. Wishbone
Classics did my rebuild, and Kai is a strong proponent of his own cams,
which he claims can be run with lower spring pressures than the GP-2.
