We Didn't Expect This Cam To Sound So Good!

[@travisevans7502]

did you measure for pushrod length or did Anderson tell you what use? Also I'm assuming you know there's more to installing rockers than just tighten them down I've done it buy just torquing them down and it always has worked but if changing heads cam and rockers which I know you didn't change heads I would measure for pushrod length and follow the full procedure to get correct rocker arm geometry this is just to help others reading the comments I'm not trying to tell you or anyone for that matter how to do things that know what's going on just thought it might help someone who doesn't know trying to learn car sounds great.

[@BREW2LFOXBODY]

That part was one of the things missing in the video. Anderson does recommend.050 longer pushrod for this cam. We forgot to order them so we decided to use the stock length which worked well. With that being said he is ordering the correct length for the car. Also I dropped the ball on mentioning the fact that I was ONLY referring to stock heads with pedestal mounts. Not studded poly lock rockers. I do apologize for not being as thorough as I should. This video was a wreck to edit.

[@hotrodray6802]

1) Exactly what I started to ask. 2) Question is.... Measuring is the only accirate way to know the correct rocker geometry. Is CLOSE enough, good enough ?? Small time investment required.

[@travisevans7502]

@@BREW2LFOXBODY You do plenty to help people out I don't mind mentioning a few things that maybe will help out also nothing wrong with the video was fine people could always ask questions if they're not sure.

[@kevin_nagle]

@@hotrodray6802 With a pedestal mount rocker you want 1/4 to 1/2 turn to the torque spec once zero lash is reached, if more or less then you would add or subtract shims.. that is on the base of the lobe. I'm not sure why they didn't bother checking that?? You'll know if it's incorrect because you will have valvetrain noise like you hear in this video. Also, you want to add some assembly lube, or at least engine oil to the tip of the pushrod, the cup on the rocker & on the roller tip.

You can always get the shims for adjusting preload if they were needed. If you get work done on the heads you may need them. You should port those heads and intake yourself or a professional, and see what you can do with the actual stock ho stuff!

Oh and I used Anderson motorsport for my mass air conversion on the same car!

[@Freakingstang]

I made an Anderson cam spec post on the corral about two decades ago with the same user name. I made 296/339 with this cam, my own ported explorer intake and my own ported gt40 heads. Car went 11.86@117/118 in 1999-2000ish. I too ran them with 1.72 rockers. The b21 and b31 were identical specs except the b31 was meant for 1.6 rockers. This is actually a blower cam, but runs excellent with a high compression NA setup or with nitrous. Speaking of nitrous, this cam is almost identical to the n21 cam abet a slight difference in centerline

[@richfullerjr1811]

One last time before I give them to someone else....if Andrew wants some free stock headlights that are not yellow...I'll ship them to him for free....just doing it because your channel inspired me to do all my own work on Trinity (88 lx)...it's all good either way master Brew2l 👍

[@jeremypike9153]

Decent fox body mustangs have become hard to find. When I was younger I didn't care for them very much because they were literally everywhere.

[@jeremypike9153]

Now I want one. I used to race dirt track mini-stock class and so many mustangs were chopped up for dirt track 4 cylinder racing it wasn't even funny. They were a dime a dozen back then. Personally I ran a Ford pinto chassis because I liked the suspension better for a dirt track surface it was just easier to tune into the track surface than the mustang suspension setup was. Leaf springs with shackles and double wishbone front suspension is much quicker to adjust than the struts and four link in the back of the mustangs. I love a fox body for what it is but a dirt track car with suspension rules to abide by was not a situation that it excelled at. It wasn't as adjustable to the surface nearly as quickly or easily as old fashioned leaf springs and double wishbone front suspension was. The drag strip was where the fox body excelled honestly. It came with everything necessary straight from Ford to be able to make it work well. Leaf springs are a whole different animal at the drag strip requiring much more adjustment to make things work night to night.

would love an update on how this setup has worked out for Andrew? I have a 94 GT, GT40P 1.72 RR combo, and was thinking of going this route. What spring package did you use? doing the math on it with 1.72 rockers the lift on the B-21 will be .548/.548. The Trick Flow spring package(TFS-2500100) only recommends being good to .542 and people online typically say even that is pushing it for those springs.

I loved my N-41 in my 5.0 that I put in my 90 Mazda RX7 after the 160hp 15mpg rotary, I decided why do that when I can easily get 320 HP with hand ported and milled GT40P heads and it got a better 25 mpg with my foot out of it. It was a good mild cam with great drivability, If I remember right it was 224in 228ex with 112 centerline and around .540 lift or so with 1.7 roller rockers (was like 25 years ago) An old friend of mine has a first gen RX7 that weighs like 2400lbs with a LS3 and a turbo that is pushing a little over 650hp to the wheels, as you can imagine he says it is more than a hand full! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWnYmpatrplsftE&ab_channel=Motorin
