So as with anything there are many different options for a cam. Ive got a 05 QC 4x4 Hemi. I want a bad ass sounding cam that actually has practical performance. Im going to be putting in 4.10s soon and I still have stock heads. So i guess im looking for a mid range cam. I know weight is a HUGE issue here. Got my sights on the Spartan and Comp 268... Any advice will be welcomed


Pacesetter mid tubes, Intake, Diablosport, stock heads, gears soon to come

The Comp260/268 series seem to be the popular choice for our heavy 4x4's. Someday I'll get one!!!!!

I got Comp Cams to grind me a KRC 210X cam... I'm more than happy with it, aggressive sound and awesome torque. Needs a custom tune to run though, mostly for idle. The Comp 260 and Sidewinder cams are supposed to be pretty good for heavy QC's too.

 

[MoparMuscle4x4]

So they made a custom cam to your specs?

 

[Galaxy1966]

Yea I just emailed them a copy of the cam card with all the specs, they put it in their system and sent me a copy of what they put in the computer to verify that everything was what I wanted. I ordered the custom grind and it was at my door 4 days later. Their customer service was excellent. It was a little over $400 I think.

Let us know what happens, i want the 268 over 260 for the top end

 

[MoparMuscle4x4]

Will do. Think when I do it ill make a video of idle. Plans are Pacesetter longtubes dumped, Either 268 or Spartan... Stock heads still

hey kay..thats nasty!!! what guages do you have in the pillar pods?

 

[TheSatinPumpkin]

Thanks. The video is old but still good to hear. The Cam ended up going to PCP and his sounds downright nasty.
Cheap Glowshift brand (Oil PSI and Trans' Temp), then of course the AEM wideband. Also Raptor shift light which comes in handy with the B&M floor shifter.

im going to be gettina a comp 268 cam, before mem. weekend, i race the truck in the dunes at silver lake. but this is a daily driver i havint seen anybody put what fuel they run. can you run anything 87-89-91??

 

[TheSatinPumpkin]

Depends how good your tuner is but 91 to be on the safe side since 268 will require a custom tune.

 

[chefred112]

with my spartan and custom tune i have to run 91 octane...
