chicago240z Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I was hoping someone might have this cam and know the specs on it it is a BRE 311 camshaft, ive contacted BRE and they didnt have info on it so I tried ISKY and they didnt, from what I've gathered it is a mid to high range cam, it is possibly going into a 3.1L that currently has a isky cam, it is the second from the highest they make but from what ive read stage 1,2,3 arent that good this would i guess be stage 4 out of 5 Thanks for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24OZ Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) If no one can help you, then as a last resort find a shop with a cam doctor. They can even measure each individual cam lobe to check consistency. What's the lobe lift? Edited November 27, 2012 by 24OZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) Racer Brown archived website may be of help... But as to this: " it is possibly going into a 3.1L that currently has a isky cam, it is the second from the highest they make but from what ive read stage 1,2,3 arent that good this would i guess be stage 4 out of 5 " If you are referring to what's in their catalog (and I'm betting you are, since you do not mention talking to Ron), the exact quote from him in regards to "big cams" was: "Oh, if you're serious about racing, I wouldn't use one from the catalog, we've got much bigger cams than that...the catalog is for the 90% of guys who want to buy something quickly and aren't looking for the most out of their engines. How much cutting to your piston crown are you comfortable with?" Obviously for most people, the cam journal diameter limits total lift to the 0.620" range... For most people, muahahaha... And as I have stated in the recent past, with a couple of dial indicators and a degree wheel you can figure out what you got pretty darn closely. It ain't rocket science!
