Eddie-G-Force Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Hi, I need some help. I have a Racer Brown SS-24 grind my brother bought in the early 80's??? We put it in a stock 76 L28 FI Z, and it didn't perform so great, he kept getting busted by the Utah smog police so he replaced it with a stock one (Which ran stronger). Fast forward 30 something years, and I'm installing it in a SU carb'ed L24 with a N-47 head. Yes, he kept the thicker lash pads too! Only took about a year to find them! I installed the cam, set TDC with a piston stop, & degree'd the cam in with a new timing set in the #1 dowel position, and I keep coming up with a 111 deg. intake cl. Here's my questions. Is the 108 on the RB cam ID ( back-end) the Intake CL, or the lobe separation? Intake CL seems more useful. Valve lift is ~.450" Second Question: I set the intake lash to .010" is this correct to degree the cam? Or should I go to zero lash, for CL I don't think it would make a difference. Dowel positions 2 & 3 would just advance the cam more making it worse. Okay I was wrong, position 2 @ 3 advanced the cam, thus the intake CL deg got smaller. Position #2 looked the best at 109. I've attached photo of the cam. I wouild still like to know the cam timing specs of this cam if anybody can help me out. Ed G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
