A Good Turbo Cam?

[CLKWRK]

I am putting a turbo in my ghia, and i have a scat c-35 cam, it has .410" lift and 286 deg duration.

will this be a good cam to put in my 2180cc turbo/intercooled ghia? If not, any suggestions?

it will be fine, I wouldn't bother changing cams!

how 'bout a turbo on the fk-89 in a 2332. how will this behave? or what would be a proper cam?

thanks,

for competition use, the FK-87 is an excellent turbo grind!

K-8 works good too.

I am pulling out an FK-89 for the C-35, I would think that the FK-89 has too much overlap for a turbo application.

I will be using a Pauter K8E05, they said this will do the job on a 2110 between 2500-6500rpm and if you run around 20psi with 7-1comp you should get between 300-400 bhp!

Great! Now i dont need to go out and buy a new cam for my ghia, thanks for the help

One more question, is the C-35 cam for use with 1:1 rockers or 1.4:1 rockers, and is its lobe centre the same as an engle 110 (108 deg).
I was thinking of useing a custom grind
with .575" lift, 300 deg dur and 112 deg lobe centre.........any thoughts on that?

C-35 is for 1.1 rockers and is 108 deg. lobe centers.
