Gt35 cam selection help

[koukiFC]

ive been doing research for my gt35 build and i am at my cam selection and am stuck. i was thinking the BC 264 but a buddy of mine said that it might not be enough flow for it. any suggestions?

I have no idea about your issue at hand. Can't help.

But HOLY s***, I'm from Inverness too. I didn't think anyone there knew what a 240sx was, let alone a turbo one. haha Have to meet up when I'm back home sometime.

Get big cams and you'll be set. 264's are fine dude.. They will flow plenty, however, to compliment your turbo thats going to spool 4k+ you want cams that will benefit that higher RPM range. With your build your low end is going to be garbage anyway, so, big cams.

haha small world. not all of inverness is fart cans and morons. there a few who actually know what they are doing

480-thank you for the info. i figured the 264 would spool it nicely but was just wanting some feedback on the 272's

im on the same bout i have a 62-1 spools up at 4k so i need a cam that benfits up top, i read that the 272 are great up top also anthony turbosx i think his sn is say the 272/272 kills low end but a 242/272 or 272/242 (s13 cam) works really well... i think i may want to try that, got to do more research

I'm not sure whether this was included in your build or not but I would look into getting a bigger (sheetmetal?) intake manifold. Cams will def. help but if it's not breathing enough you'll still be limited. Just my $.02. Goodluck!

That's to big of a difference in duration...a 264/272 maybe. But not 242...atleast not on the exhaust side if the intake has a 272. That more air in the out...lol.

I'd go with 264/264 and be done.

I'm running a gt35 with stock s13 cams,.. 240/248, or is it the other way around? Anyways, I see full boost around 3600-3800 rpms... I have an equal length manifold and ported/polished head.. Maybe I should look into some bigger cams..

240/248 is the right duration for stock. does anyone else have a 35 on stock cams or the 248/248 setup(mine as of now)? do the cams have enough flow at the top?
