Rob - good point, hadn't thought of it that way!! Tubs - ppl have come close already with the "can I fit 16v cams in my 8v because 16vs go hard" threads
from the specs on the 1st page, would it be a good thing to do, to use the ABF inlet, and the KR exaust?!
ABF cams: Intake Cam: Duration 219 deg @ 1mm, 10.8mm maximum valve lift (that's a LOT for a stock cam ) Exhaust Cam: 220 deg @ 1mm, also 10.8mm maximum valve lift KR cams: Intake: Duration: 218 @ 1mm, 9.6mm lift Exhaust: Duration: 226 @ 1mm, 10.21mm lift Being the KR exaust a cam with more duration and more lift, won't be better the the ABF one!?
Im sure there is better cams then ABF cams for ABF motor, the max power is at 6000rpm, with a godd exausth, a direct air filter and, if the cams are whit more degres like 264 and a max lift like 11.2, for example the abf cams are better?
Depends on your head and what management you run. Pair of Schrick 268s won't get thru UK emissions on stock ECU. 268in and 2 x 260s work well tho.
What does "better" mean, though, that's the thing! Personally, I think the stock cams are way too soft in a well tuned engine, but in a basic motor, they're pretty good as all rounders.
Did you measure up the KR cams as well? Can you help out with this little project? http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3578093
i'm 100% sure that the abf inlet cam is 219 10.2 lift .If both cams are with same lift why someone will put the 2 ex. cams, for 1 degree more?
Storm Developments last summer had said that for my application (carb'd 16v kr) an abf inlet cam would be something i should look out for as an upgrade at some point as it would give a little bit extra over the standard cam.... they had tried one on a car and was worthwhile very interesting thread H8SV8S and very good work!
does this mean an ABF Inlet and a KR Exhaust cam would be a good combination thats what i got told years ago ?
