sounds like a great conversion, post up some pics.

would they be the best cam for the job, probably not. will they work, yes, you will still make decent power with them. i've never been a fan of 1 cam suits all type builds. if you are serious about a build, alot of cam companies only charge a $100 or so more for a custom cam. that way you get...

can't see why it can't be consistent. if the track is ok, we usually run within a few hundredths all day. your not chasing big power or big boost so you should be fine.

i am not familiar with the specs on those cams. we run about .410'' lift on both exhaust and intake. the only part changed out in the head is valve springs. car runs 8.2@166, we shift around the same as you at the track and it's all good, no need to go out spending big $'s on things that aren't...

we go with what the engine builder says. having built numerous hi-po 1UZ engines in his life, we prefer to listen to what he knows compared to what a cam company says. go with another brand of springs. we run motorbike springs in the Capri ;)

we always had twin 62's. just changed the rears, because it was choking in the deep end. it showed it picked up HP on the dyno, but on the track it only showed a slight improvement. the cams now is smaller than the 2 previous cams.

ok, we talk to alot of people at the track. tell us who u r next time so we know ;) we didn't think you were degrading the Capri, what you do to your car has no affect on what we have done. how much money you have spent on the heads, engine etc, the engine should be alot better and make...

why? all we did was change springs and it's making around 1150 E85 on 30psi. factory shit works well for us.

ok, so you personally have done nothing with the 1UZ? as i have said on numerous occasions to other people on the forum, if you need some help let us know. talk to people that have done it before, dont talk to cam companies. half of them probably havent dealt with anything like ur building...

not just real data, but common sense and understanding. there is guys out there doing more to their 500hp 1UZ's than we have had done on ours :rolleyes: the Capri spins to 9000rpm sometimes on the track, what normal street/strip car will spin that high. we haven't opened the head up, but im...

i don't care what anyone else has done, what have you done with a 1UZ? this is a 1UZ website, i want to know what you have done with a 1UZ engine. what power u have made etc etc?

are you serious, the Capri is well maintained? it did just under 10k in street driving last year, 100 1/4 mile passes, 50 dyno runs. powercruise/supernats events were it had the guts thrashed out if it. the only maintenance is put petrol in, and it gets new coolant, oil and gearbox oil every 5k...

i heard it off a guy who heard it off someone else, who's step brothers aunties niece saw it on a youtube video :p its only common sense isn't it, if ur upgrading one bit some other bits gonna need it also, especially if u want to make power over 5500rpm ;)

is pocket porting, when u have a a hole in ur pocket then you port n polish your own head? cos if it is i have done that on numerous occasions. im getting turned on thinking about sticking my finger in the hole, is that normal? what's with all the sex talk :p Jake did a fantastic job porting...

don't overthink things, it's a very simple process. our exhaust manifolds where knocked up 1 day in the garage, and work a treat. it's when you start looking at alot of different combo's and listening to too many people that it does your head in. if you can get down to someone in your area that...

though it looks pretty good :p some guys live for the wheelstand. my other brother used to be the same with his Corolla wagon, 200-300ft burnouts every pass and still run mid 8's :eek:
