I know you can use the standard exhaust cam up to around 500bhp

My question is are you guys running a proper standard cam or a Kent or similar BD8??

The reason I ask is that I have a kent inlet cam and its loads thicker than the standard exhaust cam...

Answers much appreciated

 

I run a original Ford Standard Exhaust cam in mine.
Although i'd highly recommend Newmans Billet cams if you wanted a Standard Spec but a new cam.

Thanks for the reply

 

439.2 bhp on standard inlet and exhaust.

 

bd16 inlet and bd15 outlet on mine

 

What power does yourrun with those cams??? Does having the BD15 exhaust make it laggy??

 

it made 502 with a misfire as for lag its not that bad

 

Mine makes 590 bhp and 578 ft/lb of torque on a standard exhaust cam.

Im not allowed to say the Power that Mark stops using a standard exhaust cam but its a whole chunk higher than you have just quoted.

 

Yes there really is no need to change the exhaust cam unless you want to rev the nuts off it on solid followers or go mega power.

So what affects does putting a bigger exhaust cam have??
