General Cam profile comparison thread.

[cecotto]

This is my Catcams intake compared to the standard intake.

I'll do the exhausts too in near future.

And hopefully also some Schricks. But i don't have those at hand, so i need to borrow them..

I have chosen to do a measurement each 5 degrees, i think that's suffucient to do a nice visual.

The measurements are taken on a flat tappet, so the curves reflect actual valve motion. On the cat cams you will have to subtract the valve lash. as this is a mechanical profile.

It's worth pointing out the difference on the ramps, the mechanical profile is much more gentle in the initial lift, and seating phases.  Where the hydraulic (standard cam) is very steep.

Try looking up their options: http://www.catcams.com

My cams are not listed on the list, they are 284/271 as i remember.

They lift 12mm, and the stock are just below 10mm. So you would have to be sure the springs can take this extra lift. On their website you can find canada dealers.
