Roller Camshaft Poll

Post by John »

Trying to gauge interest in moving the roller cam project forward, One person with deep pockets can do this or if there is enough common ground interest, it could be done at a better price. It will still cost more than catalog cams.
What end use would you put this motor to? You can pick a first and second choice, (Flash can"t make up his mind).
If he does I allowed re-voting.
If you haven't, you should read this, viewtopic.php?f=5&t=105

If I could purchase a roller cam set for my I6 it would be purchased for:

John


PS If you have other options let me know and I will see if we can include them.

I think another choice is reliability, the roller valvetrain doesn't need the higher ZDDP content, and is less likely to eat a lobe during breakin.

Can we retrieve the data that was there before the change?
If not we can vote again.

I didn't vote because I'm going with what I have. I might be interested in the distant future, but don't want to be counted on a group buy. I will of course be following the development and will be providing positive reinforcement.
Improved performance and reliability would be mine.

This poll is not about signing up for a group buy, but if this project moves forward, it might help to know what the majority of us might be like to see become available. :cheers:

I voted for street and crawling--

I think the 'crawling' and 'trail' are redundant-- we might want to consider them one in the same. To me it equates better off-highway performance.

We all will like better relaibility :D
