The Ford Barn

KiWinUS · 01-24-2015, 08:28 AM

Guys & gals , how many Ford Barners have a L100 or KiWi-L100 camshaft ? Either in a running car or build underway or just own one (or 2 or even 3 as in Bill Boomers case )
Cheers
Tony

I have 2 unused L100 cams from Cam Techniques and 2 Max1 cams. Can't decide which ones to use for my builds.,...jack

GoCatGo · 01-24-2015, 09:20 AM

I have two from Cam Techniques. One in an 8BA in my '36. (running straight pipes, & I love it) And one in an 8BA I just finished building. I like the L100 idle better than an Isky #88 I have in another 8BA.

robert dick · 01-24-2015, 09:30 AM

i used one in my 8ba powered 36 ,ran it for 6 years and loved the idle and the way it pulled in 2nd.

have 3 kiwi and used 6 from Cam Techniques All the customers are very happy. One Kiwi is going in the Paxton blower motor. Also used some awesome cams from Pete where the L-100 would not be quite right such as in the 304. (potvin 425)

I bought two from Cam Techniques several years ago. One is in an unfinished 276" build for my '51, the other a spare.

Why not swap cams, be nice for a back to back compare.

You better have some high compression heads for that little engine, to see the potential of that cam.
I had one in a 239 ci, sounded good and went ok I spose, I put some high compression heads on it, damn! Came alive! The difference was and is almost unbelievable!
