im looking for some advise on picking a cam i have a 85mmx89mm set up and should be around 13.5cr mark...now im stuck between a few cams like the pro3,s2s2,m24 im not sure which way to go so if you guys can help that would be great.....

 

im running s2s2 on 13.2cr on a 1.8liter....im thinking you need a bigger cam like skunk pro series...
sadly there is no "best cam" you will need to see what works with your setup....rocket makes some awsome cams....bisi does also....the skunk pro series are really good....i would call/talk to rocket bisi and tony and see what they say for your setup.

 

can be skunk pro series cams, pro II, or pro III cams, i have on my race engine pro III and have a great torque and whp and its 89x85 14.2 to 1.

 

what kind of numbers did you put down?....

and i know theres really no "best" cam but i really just want an idea on some pro's and con's of some of the cams out there from people who have used them....just want to make sure im not going in the wrong direction...i was leaning to the pro 3's or even the rockets but i already have a vavletrain and rocket sells the cams with a valvetrain

 

m24xx's would probably be best for your setup
I'd also look into the pro 2's and pro3's..

 

coming from the only supplier of rocket cams =P

 

I'm not bias - infact i have pro2's in my own built b20vtec - i plan on dyno testing m24xx's vs the pros tho, i think its time for a update on the comparsions but non the less i haven't had a chance to change cams.

 

Just because a cam works good on one setup doesn't mean it works well on all setups...realistically if i was not having a custom cam made for my setup i would be calling each company and find out the motor setup they used for developing the cam they offer.

 

No mention of BC4's?

 

m22xs are designed with the basic bolt on 1.6~1.8 liter at mind with a valvetrain upgrade.
m22xx's were designed with the built 1.6/1.8 in mind looking for that low end power but gainning a good bit of top end
the m24x's were made for 2.0+ liter motors more of a road racing cam if u would..

the m24xx's are the all out 2.0+ liter race cam basically.

i could go more in detail but i dont wanna seem like i'm selling.. i'm just correcting information.

 

I've never liked the buddy club line..

Crower / brian crower really dont apply to me neither.. as i've ran both dad and son's cam and they dont really "do it" for me..

the buddy club line has one cam.. the bc5's, however as 92typer proved, the bc5's got shat on by the pro2s and pro3's.

 

what no cam for built high compression 1.8 looking for top end power?!?!?!
seriously though....i think its time for my sk2stg2 cams to be replaced with some newer ramp technology

 

the m22xx's would be in that area - they are the designed top end race cams for the smaller motor.
They also with the "xx" have bigger primaries so you dont lose the low end or mid range and you gain a good bit on top.

 

with the pro II i was having 216 whp and 148 lbs tq
with the pro III 223 whp and 153 tq
at 5,500 feets over sea level see my vids all are with pro III cams.
