What are the racing evo 3 s14's cam specs?

[sk8wnec]

Anyone know the Evo 3 ones? Or are they all different depending on what company bought the car?

And can anyone tell me what this means?

233 @ .050"
Gross lift w/1.55 - 468

I'm still learning about E30's myself but I can tell you that the 233@.050" means that the cam has 233 degrees duration at .050" lift and if the motor is the 2.3l 4cyl, then I can say that those cams are pretty stout for that motor( meaning you should gain quite a bit of power from them). Be careful though because you might need to upgrade your valvetrain( springs, valves, retainers)

That sounds like a standard '248' cam. Race cams are completly different, you need shim under buckets and a complete new valve train - $4000...
They have very steep ramps and are in the range 292 - 320 degrees. BUT you need some high compression pistons to make them work (12.3:1 minimum) does your local gas support that? notice how the costs are already adding up...

Stick to the Schrick street cams 276/284 set. You will also need a remap to take any real advantage or a off the shelf chip. You should see 20hp increase.



Maybe this will help:
