Default Re: Eric Weingartner LS Cam Challenge

This graph shows the general shape of 4 Intake lobes, which were generated from their Cam DR reports. The lobes are basically centered so it doesn't reflect where valve events are relative to the other cams shown.

These are the exhaust lobes for those cams.

Remember the result of what I generate, are only as good as the data and the number of data points that the cam reports have.

These are for the BTR #1, Daniel Powell #1 and Daniel Powell #2.

How did each of the cams that were tested with the different heads, intake manifold, headers, and increased CR do?

My understanding is at the up coming PRI show, a number of the people who entered a cam in the challenge will be there in a conference room talking about the cam challenge. I will not be at PRI, but maybe if are you could stop in and to get a better idea of how they made their cam selection.

I currently plan to attend PRI. I missed the first one in nearly 30 years in 2022, while I was recovering. Don't intend to miss any for a long time. I plan to sit in on several seminars, they're often quite good.

As a followup. I find it interesting how at around 4900 RPM almost all of these have the torques come so close together.

Average Cam Specs for Eric's Top 5 Finishers
LCA 110.5- Adv 3.8 - ICL 106.7 - ECL 114.3 - Intake 0.050" 239.46 - Exhaust 0.050" 254.20 - IVO 13.50 - IVC 45.96 - EVO 61.84 - EVC 12.30 - Overlap 25.80 - Intake Lift 0.642" - Exhaust Lift 0.640"


Average Cam Specs for My Top 5 Finishers - I used a different method of scoring
I have 4 of Eric Top 5 in My Top 5. One of his top 5 doesn't make my Top 5 and someone outside his Top 5 moved into My Top 5
LCA 109.7 - Adv 3.0 - ICL 106.7 - ECL 112.7 - Intake 0.050" 241.86 - Exhaust 0.050" 254.60 - IVO 14.64 - IVC 47.22 - EVO 60.38 - EVC 14.16 - Overlap 28.80 - Intake Lift 0.646" - Exhaust Lift 0.644"
