I'm butting together a motor and I'm looking at the BC 272 cams and the springs from BC as will my goal is 400-450, now i have read alot of people don't like the BC cams and springs and I'm trying to find out what do you guys think of the BC's????

i planed on getting some BC cam gears also...

i under stand on using some better cams and springs with a full race car but a fun DD shouldn't it be fine??

 

and if you think that BC don't make cam gears hhttp://www.extremepsi.com/store/customer/product.php?productid=22490&cat=1651&page=1ere you go

 

I've never heard anything bad from them. I was actually thinking about buying a set for my car in the upcoming months.

 

if your goals are around 4-450 like you said than you should be ok. anything more than that they do more harm than good.

 

I run BC 272's in my evo.. they idle like crap and they only made about 10whp over stock with the stock turbo. You'd be better off using something like GSC or Kelford

We went with a set of kelford 272's in a customers evo with a pt61bb turbo

puts down right about 500 at the wheels safely on 23 pounds

hope this helps!

I have the 272s idle is fine in the car alot better then i thought it would be but just like everyone else.. This was the newest thing out when i bought em. Now it seems like kelford. Whatever floats your boat.

 

Bc cams are good cams but they do need to be degreed (for max performance) when installed. I got BC288 and my exhaust cam was 10 degrees out IN was 3. just my opinion.

 

I had BC 280's in my shop evo for about 12 hours.. LOL, We did a dyno pull with them in, then swapped them for Kelford 272's and gained 50whp instantly with out changing anything else.

 

kelfords FTW

 

Everyone sounds like Kelford is the way to go. What about the springs?
