cams 314/296
Has anyone used Elgin cams 314/296 in a 3.2 SS.?
Previously running rsr grind. Due to wear issues the builder is switching to these. Curious what the difference would be. Any input appreciated! Cheers, Mark. |

If you ask Dema as it is his cam he will tell you that you need at least 10.5/1 compression as it does have a pretty fair amount of duration. You previously have run a RSR cam which also has a fair amount of duration it is important to know what exactly your cam measures and what defines a RSR and what truly the compression measurers not just the advertised comp ratio
If all this falls in line it is a great cam. regards |

Yes. Running 11.5/1 twin plug 46 PMO. RSR grind was a bit revy. Looking for a little more mid range power.
Sounds like these will work. |

The Elgin grinds have less duration and more lift than the factory RSR grind. Haven’t compared the two firsthand, but I believe the 314 is intended to give better midrange.
