Can someone shed some light on the cam i have in my 455 pontiac i have no clue about cams can somone tell me about it and also how to understand all the numbers i look at my cam card and am completly lost. Will this give a good sound at idle with flowmasters?
Also will this cam do good with a Torker 2 intake and 750 Speed Deamon Carb?

its made by Ed Iskenderian the cam card reads
Grind Number 256 HYD Super Cam

Intake Timing ------------------------ Exhaust Timing

Open 22 BTDC ---------------------- Open 66 Before BDC
Close 54 After BDC ----------------- Close 10 After TDC
Cam Lift .281 ------------------------- Cam Lift .281
Valve Lift .425-------------------------Valve Lift .425


Intake After ------------------------Exhaust
Open 5 TDC----------------------- Open 39 Before BDC
Close 27 After BDC---------------- Close 17 Before TDC

The above Timing is Checked at .007 Lifter Rise

 

This is a reletively mild street cam in a pontiac motor.

It's basicly a stock replacement cam.

It will have a smooth idle. The power band is from idle to 4800rpm.

Not the best choice for horsepower with a Torker II pontiac intake.

For that you'd want a little bigger cam.

Like and Isky 280 MEGA CAM. You can find the specs for your cam and other ISKY cams at www.iskycams.com

Well i guess when i put different heads on the car i want the edlebrock heads. I will replace the cam as well. Hey anythign is better then the 350 that i had in the car that destroyed it self.

 

I was hopeing it was a deacent cam. Dammit now someday i will have to change the cam. Any idea what kinda hp i should be pushing in it?

455
Port and Polished 7m5 heads
Trw Forged Pistons Bored 30 over New rods Stock crank.
Torker 2 Intake
750 Speed deamon
Super Comp headers

It should be a fairly deacent engine for the street?

 

You can get a good idea of how much horsepower you're making by running your car down the drag strip and getting a et time slip.
The MPH at the end of the quarter mile indicates your horsepower.

I'd say about 350/ 360 gross flywheel HP.

 

The engine is not in the car yet. Ive waited 4 years to drive the car i bough tit after an accdent took 2 years to find parts got it running drove it up the grade 30 mins after finaly getting everything good and running. It threw a rod. Now its getting a new engien tranny suspension.....
