Seems expensive compared to BD ranges by Newman but unfortunately they don't offer this one yet

You don't need valve cutouts with the AB07 but will need them with the BD14 (to be safe)

This cam is low on lift and duration for the inlet. Whats the limits power wise if no over limitation on power exists . .

The cam is the best you can get without having valve cutouts.

Mine makes around 480bhp with this Cam.

Steve,

I'll have a drive down to Motorworx if you like, i know mine only made 341bhp on Martin's Rollers @ just 1.7 bar so i'm up for another run, i'm not sure it's holding boost though tbh...

I'll get Slim to have a looksie..

Graphs for you

The first graph is with the standard inlet and my TT T38

Name:  scan0001.jpg
Views: 189
Size:  96.0 KB

The second graph is with the AB07 cam fitted and the TT T38 along with a slight map tweek but no extra boost

Name:  Untitled-1.jpg
Views: 170
Size:  112.4 KB

As you can see it gained 80lb/ft over the standard cam with my TT T38.

Its not Pete, i am skint after xmas so i dont have any money to pay for my new head. Nothing will happen untill i have that as i cant be arsed, i might have to sell one of my spare cranks but i am trying to put that off for as long as i can.

I was tempted last week to just sell all the yb stuff and make a 500bhp+ ford V8 for half the money.
