I got custom cams last year, what is your cam specs if you dont mind me askin

Jason sorry i dont have enough posts to send any PM's So....

This is the specs on the Tri-Flo Solid Lifter Stage 2
Prim Int 231 Deg. .392 Lift
Sec Int 218 Deg. .378 Lift
EX 231 Deg. .392 Lift
Base Circle Reduction Approx .070"

Also im having him Stage specific Intake valves to be designated as the primary Due to my intake setup so i wont have to deal with Air Disturbance when my short runners open up.

[Mr.Jason]

holy shit man, how are you going to shim those? and deal with coil bind / piston clearance?

Who is assembling the head?

my specs were Triflow turbo solid

Pri 218 @ 0.050 w 0.374L
Sec 209 @ 0.050 w 0.373L
Ex 209 @ 0.050 w 0.373L
Aprox 0.050 base circle reduction.


So far i am NA but they are noticeable. I got them last year

THIS NEEDS TO BE SPECIFIED IN THE VERY FIRST POST OF FUTURE BULK BUYS!!

We had the same exact problem last year. Luckily Geoff is an awesome guy and still sent me my cams even before I sent him the New International MO.

Yeah there needs to be something said about the "international" money order. I got the M.O. back from Colt and now I'm on my 4th visit today and tomorrow will be my 5th visit to the post office to sort this out. Today I got "we dont have enough money to refund you"? So tomorrow during mid day this shouldn't be a problem. Then i'll hit up someone who does send International money orders. Ughh.

Not going to shim them... hope they stay together at High RPM.
Just Kidding, well kind of. Im going to have my new titanium valves cut to length once i get mesurements when the cams come back. Minimal shimming will be required , If any. Im doing quite an exotic mix of valvetrain components, most custom made or Remanufactured. The valve im using are used Nascar Del west titanium 6mm Valves and are being sent to Jarvis Machine to get the custom recut and sized. Im still waiting for a quote from them. As for assembly, A local machine shop is doing the valve seats and decking the head. I am personaly Doing all the porting and polishing and final assembly.

The stupid part about it is that again they did not have enough money to refund me at any cashier buuuut, they just so happened to change their story on me and now they sell Canadian M.O.'s

Got a bit of a care from Colt. They emailed saying one of my cores was bad and there's a $78 charge for another core. Thought this was kind of funny as my cores were from a very obviously low mileage ZE and looked fabulous. Apparently Geoff commented on how great they looked as well.


Fortunately, it was a mix-up and the cams are on the way, woo hoo!! One small step closer...

Received my cams today, thanks Jason and Colt Cams for the bulk buy! They look great!

Curious what you are doing for your build....I have seen those specs before from Geoff, as he sent me them about a year ago when I was talking cams with him. I decided to go a different direction with the cams. What lifters are you putting under these? And how come you are not using more duration?

The set up im currently working on is for a "Dual Runner" intake, Supercharged,Intercooled, Stroked 2.7 setup. The Lifters are Solid lash adjusters 30 & 33mm (from a milli) Machined down internally and lightened, the valves Im having custom cut to length for minimal lashing adjustment and minimizing any coil binding issues. As for the cam, I went by Geoff's recomendations for the profile. The durration should be more than enough considering the valve lift this cam has, anymore durration and i may be seeing valve damage and alot of money wasted.
