Blau 272 Camshaft

[Jörgen Karlsson]

I tried it in Dyno2000 a minute ago, I only had a JY (182hp, turbo) cam to
compare it with but it seem to work fine.

Don't take the figures that dyno2000 reports to seriously, but I know that
dyno2k and the real world agree that a 295º cam with 10.2mm lift does not
work together with a stock head ;)

I will try the 295º cam in next years turbo engine, I hope that it will save
the transmission from some of the tourque between 3000 and 4000rpm.

RPM	2	2.5	3	3.5	4	4.5	5	5.5	6	6.5	7
JY	43	57	76	93	107	120	129	132	130	121	107
295º	22	33	48	62	78	94	108	120	125	126	117
272º	37	50	66	83	100	115	128	138	140	137	126

The JY and the 295ºcam is solid lifter and so is the 272ºcam I tested here.
I think that this is best for the comparison. I used 10.2mm lift for the
performance cams, more lift shouldn't add much power.
