Camshaft selection/ choice
Little help from the forum techs needed.
I am running a 598 BBC in our 240" Racetech 4 link dragster. This year our best et was a 7.71 (averaged 7.82) @ 172 MPH (averaged 169/170). A little info on the motor, we are using a edelbrock Victor intake, Pro topline 360 heads, 14:1 CR, and fueled by a George Rupert 1150 alky carb and 4.10 gears with 33.5 hoosiers. I found that others seem to be out mile/hr me at the same et (1-2 MPH+). Now when I bought the car last year, the fellow told me that there is a small cam in the car. I tryed e-mailing CompCams with my info but 3 weeks later still nothing. I've heard that great gains can be made by going to a 7/4 swap cam. Any thoughts on this and our suggestions on cams?- Lance
