hydro turbo camshafts?

is there a camshaft that would work with a 1.9 wasser with the standard hydro lifters with 15psi of turbo? was gonna re use my 2.1 dj camshaft but looks a bit unhealthy

how about an engle 100 or similar?

the stock cams are ok to turbo you can add 1.25 or 1.4 rockers
the engle cam wont work with hydros, the ramp rates are too fast(ive tried them

)
cb has some.
good luck

Hi mate,

You might aswell swap to solid lifters when you split the case. You can have the lifter bores bushed with bronze sleeves. That way you can run type1 lightweight lifters in any size, and pick any cam you like.

cheers,

Oscar

i want to stick with the hydro's, no machining and nice n quiet. also have a new set

. think at the moment i quite like the engle 2252

(thanks for info iain

) but i really don't know what the hell i'm talking about

can someone confirm the lobe centers and over lap for me? think it's 107* lobe centers and 28* overlap?
