Midri Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 So I recently acquired 2 after market cams from a buddy of mine. One is a Schneider 270-60F-14 C1/D1 and the other is a 270-60F-14 C2/D2 (not sure what the difference is. If anyone knows I'd love to know.) I also received a set of 0.16" lash caps to go with them. What else do I need to be aware of when installing this more performance driven cam? Also these are sold as turbo cams, does it even make since to put them in a NA car?(My old cam is stock, Japan "A" model) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 What engine, carbs or EFI , and what are your intentions? Most people recommend new or reconditioned rocker arms with a new cam also. That's the real expense. Might be able to find some info here on the cam profiles and the number/letters - http://schneidercams.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midri Posted October 11, 2015 Author Share Posted October 11, 2015 EFI and I forgot to mention we have rocker arms out of the engine one of the cams came out of, so we're switching to those since they are already worn in for that cam.

NewZed Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Seems like a lot of work, and a lot of risk, for not much benefit in performance, probably even a degradation of overall driveability. BRAAP did a lot of work in figuring out how the stock EFI system can be modified and tuned. Then he wrote down all of his thoughts. Worth reading. http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/95316-braaps-l6-efi-induction-advice-and-tips/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 This is from the Schneider page - "All cams are drilled for through cam oiling. Custom tuning or an upgraded ECU is heavily recommended with any of these grinds, but your engine may run fine with the stock tune with our smaller grinds. The larger grinds will require either extensive tuning or a standalone ECU system. Custom grinds are available as well." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midri Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 Well the plan is to run it EFI for now, but switch it over to 4 barrel carb in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
