Budget 390 FE Engine Build Measuring Cam Lobes

Prev Next
We don't have a cam card from the previous build, but we do know this is a high-performance, flat-tappet, hydraulic camshaft. Peart determined lift to be 0.325 inch intake and 0.325 inch exhaust (at valve, 0.572 inch). Duration is 236/236, with 108-degree lobe centers. This is an aggressive flat-tappet hydraulic street cam with a lumpy idle. We'll tone it down with a hydraulic roller cam.
