What do you guys think about stagered cam setup? I'm about to install HKS 256/264 (int/exh), 10.5mm lift, on a stock internal, stock head, tomei expreme manifold, HKS GT2540, all support mods, on a friend car...

I ran the number throught the calculator on the KA-T site, here's what it give :

Overlap : 4.00 degrees
Intake Duration : 222.00 degrees.
The Exhaust Duration : 225.00 degrees.
The Inlet Cam has an Installed Centerline of 108.00 degrees ATDC.
The exhaust cam has an Installed Centerline of 111.50 degrees BTDC.

I've seen some nice dyno sheets with the stock intake cam, and BC 264 on the exhaust side, with T28... Not big number, but nice powerband all along the RPM range.

Anyway, i'm just curious what you guys think about stagered cam setup!

And again, this is a really interresting discussion!
