The Thruth on Cam Advertised Duration Etc
Here is some good info to read. This is from a Evo 8-9. Yes I know they are two different motors but I use the numbers as a reference to convert to DSM specs e.i. intake duration @ .050 lobe lift: 211.5 is universal on cam analyzer. So the breakdown speaks for itself and gives an idea of the real numbers vs advertised numbers.
4g63 Camshaft Research: The truth shall set the tires free!! It gets really good when they get to the Evo 9 FP4R cams on the cam analyzer. Here are the advertise specs of the Evo 9 FP4R version 1 & 2. Both have more duration then the DSM FP4R (from what I have researched every evo cam has more duration then the corresponding dsm cam). http://store.forcedperformance.net/m...s/evo94rv1.pdf http://store.forcedperformance.net/m...s/evo94rv2.pdf If you want to cross reference here are some evo cams at 1mm advertised duration. Also Jun 272 peak lift is advertised as 10.8 but shows 0.41829 =10.6mm on the cam analyzer. Cam Specs Thread - Updated - evolutionm.net I will say this. I have to give props to Darren at FFWD. He is the only person my machine shop and I have ever seen that posted the true specs of cams. They have always been there. Most just dont understand them. http://www.ffwdconnection.com/dsm/dks/dks3.html |

Interesting that stock 9 cams are similar to the DSM HKS 272's.

I run FFWD KING KAMS. Almost everyone blasted them and called the Kelford and/or FP 5R regrinds/clones. That just verified to me what I already knew. Which is most don't have a clue about what they are looking at. Because the real specs of KING KAMS were posted right on it's page in the cams description from the cam analyzer. My from the cam analyzer my intake cam is bigger then DSM FP 5R's advertised duration and my exhaust cam is damn near bigger then the DSM Kelford 280 advertised duration and i mean damn near. I wanted to rev to the moon and back. Thats why I bought the KING KAMS and I got the last set made. But alot of people would have loved the cam. If they knew what they were looking at lol.

Update and a damn good read!. February 2014 issue of dsport magazine. They themselves just did a unbiased evo cam showcase. Part 1 only showed a few cams that were tested and all the other cams will be shown in part 2! They show the real duration (cam pro analyzer) vs advertised and also dyno'd them. I linked pics of the article. Which shows the kelford 264, 272, and 280 real cam data!!!!!! Down to the volumetric efficiency of the cams.....throughout the rpm range!!!

Hmmm Kelfords. I'd like to see GSC's tested.
Need to find a good replacement for these stockers. |

Re: The Thruth on Cam Advertised Duration Etc
I have Kelfords, this is good lol

Re: The Thruth on Cam Advertised Duration Etc
I just like GSC's because even though they are only a few years old, they re did them after about a year or so.
Basically they continue to improve their cams and released a set for stroker DSMs |
Re: The Thruth on Cam Advertised Duration Etc
I too am very interested in gsc. I just wonder if all the big boys are running kelford because they are no doubt top two and maybe get a little incentive to run them? either way it's most likely a wash between them

Re: The Thruth on Cam Advertised Duration Etc
Hum, what about dial indecators, degree wheels, and solid lash adjusters. I have degrees cams a lot in the 4g63 and 6g72 motors and have a lot of good info written down.

Re: The Thruth on Cam Advertised Duration Etc

Re: The Thruth on Cam Advertised Duration Etc
That would be some awesome info for us who still can't decide between them.
