cam length/storage


Recommended Posts

I was recently ask the length of a sbc cam, (WHY I HAVE NO IDEA) but it was simple to measure, I just went to the shop and measured one,

they are 21.375" give or take a few thousands of an inch

 

btw that leads me to point out how to store cams long term, when you store your spare cams, the best way Ive found is to cut 24" sections of 2" pvc pipe, glue a cap on one end then slip in the cam,add a 1/2 pint of clean oil and cap the other end with a slip over rubber cap with a radiator hose clamp to seal it, lable the outside on tape around the tube,or if you have the cam card insert it in a plastic bag and tape it to the outside of the tube, so that when you change the tube contents the lables gets torn off and changed, or you can find the cam card in a few years.

I have cams stored this way for MANY year that come out in NEW condition when the time comes to use them
