Stocker Cam Lobe Profile ?

[Aubrey N Bruneau]

I know, Bill... the 'ol "bigger is better" thinking.
I suupose I could try and justify it by saying that it alreadhy has the "bigger" carburetion... and that I was just trying to follow suit ?

Anyhow
I just had a lengthy conversation with the Stocker guy at Comp Cams.
One thing I know for sure now... you guys with the BBC's, spinning big RPM, are NOT using a lobe that resembles this intake lobe that is on my cam. He confirmed that it is NOT an RPM stable lobe... especially with inherently heavy valves / high ratio rockers.

So, I have taken heed to everybody's recommendations and advice.
And it looks like I WILL build a new set of headers.

If I can retain even half of what I learn around here, maybe I won't blow up again... and maybe even go faster ? !

thanks guys
