    Re: my 172 slag

    why such lame cams?

    have you got before/after torque curves? Or even a few words to say what the cams did?

    ahh, Ok, the limit wouldn't be the duration, it would be the overlap - the clash only happens just off TDC. You should'a done the pistons, you'll regret it later

    No chance of a clash if you happen to have slipped a 1.8 crank in....

    and just for fun, compare the 172 with itb and cams against Muds GTT, both curves are torque at wheels.

    Nice graphs Andy.

    I don't get the second one though. That looks like Mud's GTT makes only 125ftlb at the wheels?

    not before you swap the pistons and fit some big cams, that graph needs at least one more curve.

    Why would you remove the bodies to turbo it?
