Where would you limit compression with the Reverse Pattern Grind RV15M Erson? Where will diminishing returns occur? I'm thinking I'll be pretty safe with 10:1. Yay, Nay? CJ |

10:1 seems like a lot for that short of an intake duration and, more importantly the early intake closing point. With the slant's open combustion chamber I'd shoot for 9:1 give or take. I think 10:1 is not going to allow full ignition timing. |

I am running the same cam in Twiggy with 9.18 static CR and I am not getting any spark knock with 10 degrees initial and 30 total timing on 87 octane fuel. The aluminum head may be helping my combo in resisting detonation. DD |

Hmmm. I may need to recam for next year then. I can run my 52cc head with the small valves at Redding. What's the Victor Reinz head gasket thickness compressed? Time for some more cam then. With the low speed build I have, I need to watch how much bump stick I give it. Anything designed for over 5000 RPM is going to be wasted. Red Line is 5500. Theoretical comes out around 5800 I believe. CJ |

an aluminum head is good for a least .5 compression increase compared to an identical iron head.

I haven't been pinging with ~9.5:1 and 10° base timing. That may change though. we'll have to see. I need to dig up the info on my pistons for dish cc's. That should tell a tale. CJ |

Where would someone get the specs on the Erson RV15M camshaft. I don't see it listed in the manufacturers choices. bwhitejr |

It's buried in the erson cam buy sticky somewhere (may have to follow a couple of links). There's also some special grinds buried there too.

Isn't that almost a stock cam? I would go bigger with 9.5:1. 225-230 deg @ 0.050" would be my pref. Lou |

Where would someone get the lobe profiles for Erson? bwhitejr |

Working on it Lou! This is one of Doc's special grinds. I think it would be extremely happy in a pickup. The bottom end is phenomenal! CJ |

Here are the events for the 260 Intake / 244 Exhaust RDP design. Ground on a 108 centerline. http://www.dutra.org/pictures/engine/cam-260-244.jpg It is a pretty mild cam design but it works well in a street performance engine. In Twiggy, I reved the engine to 5200 at one point and the cam supported that RPM. (but the 1 bbl BBS was not keeping up) I have to get-up the nerve to spray this engine... my guess is that it will handle 5500 RPM and run mid 14's with a 50 HP shot. DD |

Doc, I looked at the cam sheet , but couldn't come up with the 260/244 durations. It looks like seat-to-seat is 286.7/278.2 and duration at 0.050 is 224.8/215.1. Help! bwhitejr |

The event plots are harder to understand, you need to subtract-out the lash. Here is a link to a more general worksheet on the RDP RV15 / 244Ext. that is a little easier to understand. This cam was ground on a 110 L/C. http://www.dutra.org/pictures/engine/er ... am60bd.jpg DD |
