Hello,
I am trying to understand better how one would select what compression ratio to shoot for depending on the cam used ? For example, if I select a 292 cam (pn 11314292 , duration 292° , lift
10.0mm ) how would I go about figuring out what cr. to shoot for to get the most out of it ?
Thanks
Schrick 284 Cam For 4 Cylinder Engines
This is Schrick’s high torque street performance cam. It gives a strong bottom end response and continues making steady power through the full rev range. It do not require cutting for piston-valve clearance.
Schrick 292 Cam for 4 Cylinder Engines
Our favorite all around performance cam. A strong step up from the 284. With our competition Stage 2 modifications, it will produce about 160 H.P. It does not require cutting for piston to valve clearance. Works with side draft or downdraft carburetion.
Schrick 304 Cam for 4 Cylinder Engines
Considerably more power at top end than the 292 cam, these are the strongest practical autocross, rally, driving school type cams. These are more sophisticated cams and obtain some of their extra power from more aggressive angles between the lobes. Additional piston/valve clearance must be cut. Use with 40 or 45 mm side draft carbs. The use of our offset cam gear listed below is highly recommended. This cam uses a standard journal diameter. A small groove must be milled by hand into the center bore.
Schrick 316 Cam for 4 Cylinder Engines
A semi-race cam for club competition on-track events. Nearly full racing performance but without sacrificing valve train reliability and life. Use with 45 DCOE Webers and large diameter headers. The big lobes require boring the cam journals in the cylinder head. (Korman can provide this service
for you) This cam provides oil directly, the cam oiling tube is not needed. Additional piston/valve clearance must be cut.
Schrick Race Cams
For fully prepared race motors only. Many engine modifications and high compression ratio required. The 336 is for those who want to win! The 328 has a wider power band and makes a good pro rally or endurance engine type cam. Both are asymmetrical, the intake lobes have more duration and lift than the exhaust lobes. You will need our offset adjustable cam gear to set the cam timing. We won an SCCA GT2 Campionship with the 336 cam and 50 DCOE Webers making 230 HP. There is no stronger cam made anywhere for the M10 motor.
