Slow250XC reacted to Lord_fahrquhar in Pick me a cammy for my crossy
Camtech ct-142 503b 110 probably a bit small for your combo but really drivable.
I'd lean toward the 517 something to be said for low down torque than outright power

Slow250XC got a reaction from gerg in Pick me a cammy for my crossy
Should have added already done new valves, springs retainers etc.
And i have been haggling with a supplier over some street terra rockers,
Exhaust is extractors to 2.5 inch pipe,a 2 chamber muffler and out infront of rear wheel so flows pretty well.
Compression ratio as worked out when i did the lpg build was 10.6.
Im a whiskey drinking redneck in the nz countryside, ain't nothin sensible 'round ere haha
Happy friday guys, drink up!!!

Here have a crack at this. You'll see what a big cam does to your dynamic compression. Also they have preset values for lots of engines including crossys. http://www.pcengines.com.au/calculators.asp

Crow 650 is going to be much more than just a "freshen up". It's advertised at 292/292 and lobe lift is 0.302" which on a 1.73 rocker gives 0.522" at the valve. Anything much over 0.5" lift, ditch the stock valve train. This cam will need springs, roller rockers and if going stud-mount, guide plates too. True, it has a wide lobe separation but that bleeds compression at low rpm. It will need a decent carb, extractors and exhaust. Also compression will need to go up by 0.5 of a ratio minimum.<br /><br />If you just want a sensible upgrade using stock parts, I'd suggest keeping it close to 0.5" lift with a 602 or 603 grind. These are single pattern, 270 and 280 deg respectively. At 0.050" they are 208 and 214. My first cam was the same as a 602 and it had great torque from 2000-4000. My current one is a 666 (dual pattern 270/280) and despite clevos apparently liking the dual pattern more, I think I took a step backwards with that choice. Anything bigger than the ones I mentioned, you need some serious work to make it come alive.
