corozin 0 Posted November 22, 2007 Well... 248's are preferable if you've dropped the compression and fitted forced induction. 268's are more for NA tuning. The rest of your question is far to vague to give a proper answer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

12 DEG BEN 0 Posted November 23, 2007 I asked this question when I was selling my 268s. The part number on the cam does not indicate its type as I believe schrick make them from origional untouched cam blanks. Not regrounds. You can find out what they are by the numbers stamped on the locking end of them. Mine were hard to make out but were there. I know the last bit of info is accurate if they are genuine.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 23, 2007 Phone vince at stealth, they are 248s :? I take it these are the ones you sold Shaun? They'll definitely be 248 SCs. Differences between 268 and 248, other than duration, is lift and overlap. Forced induction cams need less overlap to stop boost being wasted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
