I haven't, but since no one else has responded. . .

That's a very healthy cam. I hope you have what it will take to support it - heads that will take the lift, intake with a power band that matches the cam power band, a whole lot of stall - just for starters.

Original Torker, you'll probably be okay. Torker II, you'd be better off with an RPM.

Re: Lunati cam opinions

I just installed the 60123 hyd roller cam http://store.summitracing.com/partde...3&autoview=sku and loving it so far. Still getting things tuned up. Haven't been to the track or dyno yet.

The voodoo line was designed by Harold Brookshire who has been designing cams most of his life. He designed some of the older comp cams line, owned ultradyne racing cams and then designed the voodoo series.

I replaced an ultradyne cam that I was pretty happy with but wanted more cow bell ;-) If you want more info on peoples results with the voodoo line you can check out the Team Chevelle. A lot of people are running various grinds (a lot of BBC) and Harold hangs out and posts there under UDHarold.

Good luck with your build up.

Re: Lunati cam opinions

I liked my voodoo 60103 for the brief time before I wiped 4 lobes off it.... Nothing wrong with that grind lineup, just know they are very aggressive, so break it in to the letter (and then some).
"Full custom heads" really doesn't mean anything, how about some more info? Torker 1? Oh man, I feel young...
