RossMK2 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 i have to ask whats the difference iv read somewhere something about forging on the blank one the O/R is on this link (cheaper) http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=12272 the blank one is on this link (dearer) http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=12332
Fiesta Steve Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 The cheaper one is probably an old cam reground the dearer one will be a new cam
RossMK2 Posted December 18, 2009 Author Report Posted December 18, 2009 ok thanks mate dearer one it is then
w p e Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 85% of kent cams are reprofiled unless stated or you ask for a blank to keep the base circle
5hane Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 85% of kent cams are reprofiled unless stated or you ask for a blank to keep the base circle Will that make much of a diffrence??
escort21 Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 Yes, The base circle determines the rocker geometry especially on pintos, bad geometry means less lift and bad wear in a short period of time. I fitted an rl31 to my pinto with bad goemetry and a kept having reliability problems, fitted a rl30 and corrected the geometry and its much faster, quieter with the less lairy cam

Fiesta Steve Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 Any will most likely be fine. I think its more of a problem on pintos with lairy profiles.
