Checking to see if anyone has the intake cam off an F4i and figured out the inlet closing angle abdc??

My other option is to buy an intake cam ($100) or ($350 whole head) and have our professor run the numbers on his cam machine.

Any help would be great

duddddeee....haven't you heard of the search button...damnnn http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

We need the cam specs for the stock f4i. overlap, duration, lift and anything else someone might have.

If all else fails, I think we might ask crane.

thanks

The Megacycle Cams catalog lists the stock specs for the F2/F3 and F4 as:

intake
0.325" lift
17.5 degfress BTDC to 37.5 degrees abdc at 0.040" lift

exhaust
0.291" lift
42 degrees bbdc to 11 degrees atdc at 0.040" lift

the F4i engine manual has the following specs at 1mm (0.04") lift
Intake
Open: 22 degrees BTDC
Close: 43 degrees ABDC
Exhaust
Open: 38 degrees BBDC
Close: 7 ATDC

We've measured the lift as 8.2mm for intake and about 7.2mm for exhaust
