what would be the compession on them with 10.1 ,,,i mean the reading in psi on a compression gauge ,,?????
damn i need to get to work ,,boring in this plant ,,,nothing really to do but sit and wait for a break down

It really depends on the cam you are using...The more overlap, the more the cylinder will blow-down and fail to produce pressure until it is up to speed and into the cam's operating range...something that isn't going to happen at cranking speed...Ironhead said:what would be the compession on them with 10.1 ,,,i mean the reading in psi on a compression gauge ,,?????

But to answer your question- A guesstimate would be in the 160 to 170 p.s.i. range.
We have an engine in the shop that is 12.9:1 and gives a reading of 150 on a compression test; BUT it has a really aggressive cam profile....

hey ronnie since you work in a shop building motors and such why don't you slide me your cam and just get another for yourself that would be easy for you right :marchmellow: seriously though your sig says mild custom roller wanna elaborate on your cam a bit for educational purposes? i assume by mild its a street/strip kinda deal

It was an experimental one-off and is based on the Viper Coupe cam. It was ground for torque and also for my "educational purposes".
A wide l.s.a. and .600" lift...
how do you like it? are you gonna build another somedayrottenronnie said:It was an experimental one-off and is based on the Viper Coupe cam. It was ground for torque and also for my "educational purposes".

The cam works well, has a bit of a lope to the idle and a WIDE, reasonably flat power curve. It favors TQ over horsepower which I think is what is needed in a heavy vehicle with an automatic that pushes a lot of air, especially at high speeds.
Sure, I would use the same profile in another Ram SRT-10.... Comp Cams will grind a cam with whatever specs you provide them....

the main thing for me is obviously to pick up some good hp and tq numbers but i want a pretty hard idle for a street/strip setup

You probably already know this, but there is not much power to be gained with a cam swap on these engines without head work or aftermarket heads...
ya im definitely gonna pp the heads, intake, exhaust manifolds, get a cam, and bump the compression for now then i will do stikers and long tubesrottenronnie said:

what about with forced induction?
the plan is to stay NA for now
my bad you meant how much power a cam could pick up with FIMcLuvin said:
im sure ronnie knows that one

just wondering since we are talking about cams...I noticed they are only on RCs...i never seen a QC with a cam.:dontknow:
maybe you should get one and be the first
and be the first505'sFastestViper.

actually qcs do have a camshaft....it would not run without it....JAYSSRT said:

depends on what fi with a paxton leave the stock cam in there and do very lil headwork.....McLuvin said:

lol is this a trick Question like how many bolts hold in the camshaft ? :dontknow:
Mine has a custom grind cam by Cam Motion.
