Don Terrill’s Speed-Talk

Mike, you sell all the above. Do you still recommend needles most of the time? I recommend what I think is best for the application. Sometimes that's needle bearings. Sometimes that bushings. Sometimes that's steel-on-steel. I'd say I sell an even amount of needle bearing, and bushing lifters. The ...

So owhats the conses here? Bushing or bearings for max life? Do they not all fail when pressed for beyond their intended design? My guess is most fail due to improper installation(bores size and index) or supporting parts such as the wrong spring, RPM, etc... Everything fails, when it's pushed too ...

Here's one we sell for the "stock spring size rule" classes. It only handles .550" Net lift

Spring# JRC15
1.250" Single Spring w/Damper
130#@1.750", 347#@1.250", CB 1.150"
Racer cost: $80.00

I always keep them instock

FYI, This is the first moment I could get back on here since 9:00 last night. The old server timed out thing. This is strange. I'm sometimes logged on 24 hours a day, for days at a time, at work. My phone is logged on all the time. I log on with my ipad, when I'm at home. Not once, have I had this ...

Thanks Mike.

That's one we use for towing, and heavy van conversions.
It makes a bunch of torque, but it's all done by 5,000rpm.

Thank you, BBM

I may choose to use it for an engine rule that doesn't have the firing order rule, But likely still have you regrind it Mike, and get your solid lifters. Mike, Can this cam be reground to have less duration? Yes, but if the firing order is illegal, you will need a new cam. Just let me know when you...

Mike, Can this cam be reground to have less duration?

Yes, but if the firing order is illegal, you will need a new cam.

First off, you don't design the engine around the cam, you design the cam to fit the engine, and the application. Second, since you classes you want to run, have rev-limit rules, you need to figure out what RPM you'll be coming off the corner at, because the rev-limit will keep you from throwing gea...

Cam it to perform, then use the EFI tuning to make it lopey at idle.
The biggest I would go, is a 224/228 @.050", .528"/.528", on a 110 LSA.

Would not this thread then better service that purpose if it was in the General Engine Tech section? That way non members who come to read the forums will see be able to see it also.

Yes, I never noticed it was in the "Advanced" forum.
