turbogrill Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Hi, I am trying to find a cam to for my new engine, I am having trouble getting some feedback on the Comp 292S cam. It's an interesting cam because it differs a little from the Isky/MSA/Delta cams in that it has a relative low lift, high duration and wide LSA. Have only found 2 posts that mentions this cam! (common in Domestic engines but rare in datsuns) Maybe it's rare because it sucks, either way curious if someone knows anything about it. Comp magnus 292S: duration adv: 292 Duration 0.05": 246 Lift: 0.48 LSA: 110 Overlap: 72 So pretty low overlap (wide LSA), long duration @ 0.05", low lift.

skirkland1980 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I tried ordering one of those and was told it's no longer available. Maybe if you call comp directly they can make one for you? My next cam will be an isky regrind. He only charges $140. If you talk to Ron he can grind a cam that I'm sure you would be happy with.

Hi, What grind are you getting the L-490 or a custom? I talked to someone named Richard at Isky, he wasn't very interested in selling anything else but a catalog grind.

skirkland1980 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Talk to Ron. He quoted me $140 for a custom regrind. I'll be sending him my stock cam next month. He also quoted $5 each for rocker reconditioning. I'll call him again before I send my cam. I'm looking for something around.525-.550" lift and 230 duration @ .050". Hopefully he'll be able to do that. Ron is a very honest guy. He said that the stock regrind cams are better than the new cams he sells.
