Positive/Negative feedback on ATR313B Cam?

[rb68rr]

Anybody have any comments after using this cam? I see where a lot of people are going with the 204/214 and I believe the ATR313B is totally opposite being 208/201. Comments? Thanks, R.B.

Looking at your signature, it looks like you're running a stock long block. Are you looking at this cam for your current combination?

 

[rb68rr]

Yes I am. I did recently add a ta-49 turbo though. Stock heads.

I went from a ATR 313B to a 204/214 after my 313B wiped 3 cam lobes and a cam bearing. i don't think it was the cams fault(3 valve spring dampers broke at 5000 rpm or so). But I think the 204/214 pulls so much more from any rpm. I would go with a 204/214 over the 313B. Maybe my car just didn't like it and I know others run it without a problem, but mine just seemed to lack any low end, and didn't have much up top either. I don't have track numbers before and after, but with the 204/214 I've now been 12.1 at 112 with only 17 psi and a street chip. There are a lot of good cams out there and most will do the job.

I had one in my old HotAir car - it was alright. Is your stock cam junk? If not why change it

Junk!
