Cam for a SOHC KA24E

[Iamjohnhayes]

I am planning on doing a cam swap in my 89 S13 and was wondering if this cam is worth buying. It's made by Comp Cams and I can get it for about $120. It sounds a little cheap to me. I was also wondering if anyone could give me the specs on the stock KA24E cam.

I think thats a mild cam. According to PDM's site that should be good for a stock engine

their second listed cam is Intake 268 degrees duration, .441 valve list, Exhaust 272 degrees duration, .447 valve lift.

on their site it sayd its a strong performer with good midrange pull to redline. THe only thing you have to do is mill the cam towers .25"

Where are you going to get a cam that cheap. The only cam i found is 300. Please give me the site, **** i might want to buy a cam too.

Here's a stupid question:

Why exactly would i have to mill the towers?

And Nelson I just searched Summitracing.com for my year 240 and they give you a load of parts for pretty cheap.
