When it comes to increasing performance the sss cam is only one step above a standard cam and there are many other steps to go after that.Rpm is only part of the formula for making hp.Ive seen stock sss motors reving to 7500 but does that make them powerful? NO. To get some decent power from an L series we need a few basic things.We need a decent flowing head(ported),a good big duration big lift camshaft with a increase in compression to match the camshaft and the fuel being used.We need to ignite the mixture at the right time and we need to be able to allow the air in and out with minimal restrictions with big carbies(twin 45's etc)and some extractors and a decent flow exhaust.If any of these areas is lacking then so will the hp.As there has been plenty of good hp L series combinations built up over the years a lot of development work has already been done and by copying some of these combinations good results can be had. Guys like errol smith has been playing with these for years and knows what works and what doesnt.Mohit the cam chart you have seems like it maybe overly advanced in its timing to me but as ive never tried it i couldnt comment on its effectiveness.It may need to be setup with a lot of compression but i would talk to the supplier about this.Most people in australia will tell you that the works grinds work quite well like the 72.74 and 76 grinds.Valve springs are a must for the l series and you may need to look at thicker lash pads depending on base circle of the cam grind. ----- Original Message ----- From: "maldat" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 11, 2004 4:45 AM Subject: Re: <Unknown Subject>
