Web Cam Type 1 Camshaft, Grind 86C, 1.4 or 1.5 Rockers, 00-111 is designed for 1.4 and 1.5 rockers, and it's specs are .585" Valve Lift with 1.5 Rockers, 310 degrees of advertised duration, and 272 degrees of duration at .050" checking clearance.We feel this is Web Cam's most "FUN" ratio rocker specific grind, and is the biggest cam you could call "Streetable" without being locked up by the White Coats! The bottom end is lazy but then the cam comes on at 3000RPM and just KEEPS COMING! Valvetrain must be in good shape for this cam, you will not get 50k miles out of a valvetrain with this camshaft!. This cam requires 10-10.5:1 compression, and the more headwork and carburetion the better it will run. Lopey 800RPM or smooth 1000RPM idle with dual 2bbls.
This HAS to have a lot of headwork or you will be hating life trying to shift so much! Expect a powerband from 3500 to 7500 RPMs, the more headwork and carburetion the better the top end will be.
You MUST run Straight Cut gears with this cam, it's too harsh for Helical Aluminum Gears!
VW Dual Springs are really borderline with this cam, you are better off with Chevy Springs because of the RPMs this cam will allow, to go along with your Ratio Rockers (Bolt On Shafts). Use a compression ratio of 10-10:5:1
Lobe Center: The proper term is really "Lobe Separation Angle", but people more recognize "Lobe Center" so that's the term we have used here. Lobe Center is a VERY complex topic, generally speaking a smaller (Narrower) Lobe Center will improve low end power at the expense of top end, and a Wider Lobe Center will do the opposite. Of course, duration does the same (more duration helps top end at the expense of low end), but it's just another way to further refine your power. If you do not know what Lobe Center to choose, the VW Standard is "108 Degrees" and you won't go wrong with that (if you didn't know, we would send you "108 Lobe Center").
We do offer other Lobe Centers for guys that have researched the topic enough, and make these options available to those that want them.
CAM CLEARANCING: Select the Cam Clearancing option for stroker crank on long stroke engines! It's needed on all 82mm or longer strokes, and SOME 78+mm crank/rod combos (VW or Porsche journals). It depends on the size of the big end of the connecting rod, but USUALLY the bigger the rod journal the bigger the big end of the rod. Generally speaking H-beam rods have a smaller "Big End" than I-beam rods do, but the only way to know is to check. If you aren't sure, just pay up for the "Cam Clearancing" option for the most room on your engine build.
