Cam's ....

[Mk2Jo]

It seems that Piper and Kent have cornered the market with the OSF fraternity .... so, out of interest ... what cam do you have and why did you go for that one??

[Vista]

Kent RL31, recommended by engine builder as being what I wanted when I described my needs.

 

i.e. Good power output without needing enormous revs, and plenty of low down torque.

 

Here's the figures it produced at the wheels (with other mods obviously)

 

3000rpm 80bhp

4000rpm 118bhp

5000rpm 148bhp

6000rpm 167bhp

[SmokeEm]

Kent FR32 coz I actually wanted a Piper 285 as in my old Pinto's Mk2 Tina but couldn't get one quick enough so went for the FR32 instead. (Similar spec)

[pelvins]

iam after some cams for mine bd 10 and 14 , not sure what make to go for as prices vary alot kent ? piper, cat, cnc etc

[X FLOW EDDY]

Will be using a kent A2 cam which is a copy of the old cosworth A2 cam to the best of my knowlage . I missed a holbay R120 x flow cam on fleebay a week or 2 ago which i would liked to have.

used to buy regrinds of these for 35 quid a go, ive still got contact details if yer interested and the guy still does em

 

i used FR32 on recomendation, its a bit mild, RL31 will be next.

[Noodles]

I ordered a burton FR32 seemed about right for my engine but got a kent cam FR32 which was listed more expensive

[Guest H.P.E ANDY]

Me grandad uses the ht 1 from kent a lot of the time it's a good all rounder and has had an 12.0 sec quarter out of it

[texr2000]

Used Kent 244 in my x/flow as engine builder uses them, think he makes his own profiles or modifies them donno but i know there was a kent 244 on the bill

[Fiesta Steve]

KENT 244 for me too 125 lb of torque and over 150 bhp on Track & Roads rollers.

 

Still driveable on the road too.

[Guest MK1gaz]

The Kent WR40 in my old pinto was the tits

[oliwally]

when i get round to actually getting an OSF again it'll be getting a kent gts2 with light weight valves

[davreeve]

Piper 285c ,Its ok but a touch mild.

[Guest cortinamad-gonetoo]

mines standard cam but looking for a good cam so will see what you lot seem to go for

[dragaddict]

on my coz 2 BD14s i love the kent cams and on pinto's we use the RC1 and the RC31

[Anglia68]

In my crossflow I had a Holbay R120 cam because that's the one they fitted to the Escorts that won the London to Mexico Rally.

[antz]

at the moment its standard but im putting a kent 234 cos kent seem to have a better rep then piper plus i got mine in a full kit off ebay for £140 brand new

[emu]

Ive a Newman in mine.

[BaileyMex]

I've got a Kent 244, seemed to fit the bill with the engine that was being built

[Mrs O/H/C]

we have a 254 cam in the tina

[H.P.E harry]

I know we have used a two or three in mine, the piper cam came out the best.

[DeanMk1Capri]

If I'd asked you how big your balls are mate .. that would have been personal

 

So ... is it Kent, Pipercross or other for you then If you would prefer not to say then that is fine
