Alpina Cam Specs?

[Widge]

I have been offered an Alpina spec reground cam by a mate. Any one know what spec the alpina cam's were I assume he means C2 spec? And also anyone ever used a reground cam before?

268 deg???

[Widge]

Dunno, that's why I;m asking
Sound's fair not too lumpy.

[Boots_Walker]

hehe, i'm not at all certain but that number sprang to mind

[Templ8e30]

Yep 268 degrees rings a bell here too

What's the normal BM cam then 256/9 or somthing I seem to remember?
So this one will releas some more ponies but won't really effect the idle etc right, I'm not horsepower mad I'd rather keep a good idle just seems sily to put and i cam in a 2.7

I thought the std cam was 256, but could be wrong.

That alpina one will give a smoothish idle, not lumpy as such and a good kick in the midrange, not a bad compromise really. And if it was good enough for Alpina then it's gotta be good!!

Just what I want, it's a 2.7 after all, don't want any of this power coming in a 5000 rpm bollocks.
Cheers Guys
I'll go and find out what he wants for it.

standard is 252 same as a mini 850! and pina 268, this is what mr. everett told me on sat at the ace! go schrick cam instead unless this is a billy bargain. As it's a head off job really to fit!
HTH

I'm gonna stick it in the budget 2.7 I'm building so the head off doesn't bother me. Ԛ£375 for a shrick is not really in buget! It will be a bargin if I can get it, it's brand new.
