I want....

 

 

I want doesn't always get!

Got bcf3 in mine 1300+40 piston 40s with 32 chokes bit lumpy good when you drive hard also nice with the 3.5 diff.

I think I know the next question....

Here you go

 

Sorry, its an A8 cam

And it idles so smoothly in the winter we rest the coffee cups on there to keep them warm

[escort21]

So what if it doesn't idle perfectly smoothly?...if it cuts out just start it again Ive run a bcf2 cammed xflow for years everyday and its fine ...it will idle smoother on twin 40s than a twinchoke by the way , ive also run a pinto on a fr32 cam everyday with a 38dgas with no choke in the winter...you get used to it ...once you get used to it you'll wonder what the fuss was about , the power increase will be worth it

Retromotorsport is right, a video of a BCF3'd xflow idling won't be a good yardstick. There are too many variables to consider that could make one idle like a Pig and the other idle like a dream. I've got a 244 cam and that idles fine, if I took a video of it (at idle) you wouldn't be able to tell.

 

BCF2, BCF3 or 234 are all fine for road use once properly set up (as mentioned by Antz). I used to have a 234 and it had wicked amounts of torque and is probably the best street cam but the pistons do usually have to be pocketed which is an extra expense. I would have thought the BCF3 is much the same as far as the spread of torque is concerned.

 

PS merry xmas

I used to have a 234 cam in a 1390xflow on a 28/36dcd and that was sweet as a nut. It was my daily runner for 3 years until the car was retired to just a play thing.

 

This time around I decided to go for a 244 cam in a 1760xflow (yes 85mm pistons!!). I was worried that it would be undrivible but its great and it idles relatively smoothly. If you haven't bought the bcf3 and depending on budget, I would get your pistons pocketed and go for either 234 or a 244, you wont regret it!!

 

Heres some videos for my 1760xflow with a vulcan stage3 head, 244 cam and twin 45s
