Default Re: camshaft profile

Yes Brian a few years back we were out by Roma in the 33, with the Babbit engine in, we went on a run out to a town called Surat,( the last place the Cobb and co stage coach went to) another guy went to overtake is in a 39 ford sedan, so as I saw him coming I put the foot down in the end I eased off as he couldn't get passed.later at dinner he came up and asked if I had a mercury engine in the 33, He wouldn't,t believe me until I lifted the bonnet and he saw the 21 stud 33 engine.
it would wind the speedo to upwards of 80 mph any time with the 4.11 gears.
