| Post subject: | Roller cams |
Cox Brothers Inc. will soon be offering slant six roller cams. We have had a small run of blanks manufactured for testing. These blanks include the fuel pump eccentric and oil pump drive gear. (I HAVE SOME REALLY COOL PICTURES AS SOON AS I FIGURE OUT HOW TO POST THEM) Doctor Dodge is helping us locate a manufacturer for the bronze gear required to run the stock oil pump. The latest update said before the end of the year we will be testing. The Doc (being the casting wizard he is!!) has also come up with a really cool casting. We are trying to find the most economical approach to making these cams (cast vs. billet). To have these first couple made was very expensive and they are only rough ground at the lobes. They also require a set of big block roller lifters, making the whole package kind of pricey. Now that the core work is complete the price will only get better if we make a very large run of these blanks. Here is where the problem is. The blanks we have now are race cores(The one Jim and I will test has a .700 lift). You can only modify the profile slightly, at the finish grind, after the cores are hardened and straightened. This might require different blanks for street use vs. racing use. We do not want to make a whole bunch of something that nobody wants. I would like to know what all of you think ?? If you could pick any profile, what would it be?? I am going to try to use the online poll available here to get an idea. See poll in engine section. I would like to thank a few people for their support with this project: Bob Stepp Doug Dutra Team Green Every on else who has shared info with us so we could all go faster |
