martingraham 21 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 I'm looking at putting a shopping list together and schrick cams found their way onto it. This is where I got a little lost. .what one is best to get? I was thinking 268. Not quite sure what it means. Can someone please explain the numbers to me Bealieboy 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Bealieboy 1,625 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 I'm not exactly sure what the numbers mean but I do know the higher the number, the less midrange torque you'll have and therefore less driveability for every day use. 263's are supposedly the best balance of performance and ease of driving. oliver cox 1 Link to post Share on other sites
pappers 50 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) As I understand, they correspond to the lift and duration of the cam...so its profile. Resulting in varying valve behavior. Edited April 13, 2015 by pappers Bealieboy and oliver cox 2 Link to post Share on other sites

pappers 50 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 'What ones is best to get?' you may find is too broad a question, as in best to get 'for what'? What is your intended outcome? I would research the effects first. D11PS, Bealieboy and martingraham 3 Link to post Share on other sites
martingraham 21 Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 after spending most the night reading the world on cams I have decided to go down the 268 route. now all that is needed is where is best to buy and what make. Link to post Share on other sites
