Ex-Finesse Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Zetec cams wear far less than those in cvh engines do. 100k miles won't noticeably affect performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ_Zetec Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Yes but cams to have a rev range in which they operate.... if u over rev cams which are designed upto 6k then they will wear alot faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Finesse Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 I'd be surprised if there were cam differences between engines used with manual and auto boxes... @ 6000rpm, a 2.0L is still pulling well. So redlining and having to change at that is gonna knock ya times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ_Zetec Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 im not talking about differences between auto and manual.... im talking about the rev limit thats built into a cam before it starts to mash itself up.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDYC Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 im not talking about differences between auto and manual.... im talking about the rev limit thats built into a cam before it starts to mash itself up....your cams havent got a serten (sp) rev limit as such your engune will never rev high enough for the cams to fcuk up what happens is the valves cant close kwick enough so the pitons end up catching up and twating the valves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
