10548 cam timing
I have mentioned non-factory cam timing for 105.48 cams in Digest
postings.
The timing I am using is 123 degree intake LCA and 103 degree exhaust
LCA in my Alfetta's 2 liter engine. These settings were developed
using Dynomation, a serious engine simulation software package, in the
hands of a power train engineer who works for a 'big three'
manufacturer. The goal of the simulation exercise was to optimize cam
timing for peak power, peak torque and average power across the rev
range. Based on my experience, I recommend this timing in the 2 liter
engine. I have also evaluated settings of 114/114 with good results,
but the timing I'm using now just feels better!
Because I have never seen simulation results or evaluated it myself, I
do not have any recommendation for this cam in a 1750 engine other than
factory settings.
