James Raby
im not catchin ya drift?????????????????????

 

I think hes moaning as this kind of post has been done before mate!
Who cares though

Nick

 

been done many a time in the mags aswell.....

 

Did you buy Newman's own RST cam, or spec your own?

How many of you are on solid lifters?

 

AVA specced mine,and as far as i know its a one off,just like andys(b8) and davies(t28) are both one offs
this cam can only be used with solids

 

hi m8
i am running a newman cam have done for the past two years , this is the second one i have had due to me wanting a wilder profile, its not an off the shelf cam, newman cams can only use solid lifters because the cam material is made out of chill cast steel, if you tryed to use hydraulic lifters the cam would'nt last five minutes.. solid lifters Initially can be a pain to setup, because of the quality of the blanks i would'nt even bother with kent piper are not as bad but you can't go wrong with newman....

 

Ive had one in my car for nearly 3 years now and would recomend it to anyone, i was just asking to see who else had them

 

T28 - its on solids? How many miles have u done/do you do? And how often does it need adjsuting? I do a lot of miles, so i'm not sure whether solids would be a viable option if i need to adjsut them every 3000 miles due to cam wear.

 

I have done about 12000 miles on the cam and it been in to get adjusted once

 

Yes its got solid lifters

 

Anyone know what Poudage the Newman Springs are??

 

not a fucking clue

 

hi christian, the guy from newman cams is a member on my site,try pm'ing him on there http://www.escortrsturbo.co.uk/forum...ODE=4&MID=2310

 

hi guys i am running a newman cam spec by ava solid lifters had a power engineering one before which i thought was the nuts but wow what a differance i found pulls hard and tails off longer just done 273 on the rollers so i recond a good choice

 

Oh Id hazard a guess at them being similar to standard RST items

 

Just noticed the newman are chill cast - which is very good. Std ford aren't - and im betting piper/kent arent either...

 

Newman quote their springs at 200lb - std ones are around 220lb, which is confusing. Maybe to do with the profile. If the 200lb ones work, then they are worth having, as will reduce wear problems.

 

They are doubles, which is why I asked.

 

sorry this does'nt answer your question but i am using a set of pumaracing custom double valve springs.
