Just like to get a feel of opinions of people's experience with cam choices?
Now a lot of people swear by STD cams on a T34 engine, or a standard exhaust with a BD14 inlet. My old saffy was running twin 14's, and to he honest the car used to rev beautifully all the way to 7.8k, and over 5k seemed to have a second wind. It was a slightly low comp engine, 7.8:1, with a ported head and a T34/48. It made 369.8 bhp on the dyno, which I think was probably about 340-50 bhp in the real world. was running 24psi on greens, but used to wipe the floor with cars running much more boost on grey etc, so I think the RR was pretty close.
My point is, that as a 2wd car, it never lacked torque, and a couple of 4x4's I have been in with twin 14's feel just as nice.
My main question really is A) is the torque loss THAT bad on a 14 exhaust cam, that it makes the STD cam worthwhile? B) Are you better off running two of the same series cams, or is an aggressive inlet (bd16) good with either a STD exhaust cam or a 14?
