I have just been offered some TRD cams with 312 duration , 11mm lift intake and 304 duration , 11mm lift exhaust . Any thoughts on these ?

Depend on what you want, road/track??? but Id be looking at torque not power, some of the quickest rally cars Ive seen only run approx 175bhp but make big torque & use it through got set-ups. 10,000rpm is fun though

Good advice... 4AG engines have no real difficulty making hp, they do have a tough time making torque. Not knowing the Catcams as well as some of the other camshaft makers.... Have you checked Dynamic Compression Ratio of your build with the Catcams??


I'd LOVE to see the porting work.... any clear photos of the work performed?
