Need inexpensive E-series mild cam

recycled_toddler · Jun 5th, 2004, 04:58 PM

I can use a cam with a little more lift and duration than stock; Want to be able to breathe better and have more gusto at higher revs while still preserve a semblance of economy. Can anyone help? Cams, regrinding services, options? Does anyone have anything like this kicking around?

Euro cam.

I think it's around $170.

Just curious, isn't it milled? Isn't mild like the unspicey hot sauce? I see countless threads about cam regrinds and everyone uses mild.

That cam auction has quite a few bids. I wonder if the reserve is the same as the buy it now

I'll be posting the cam again and I lowered the reserve a little, I paid near $200 for it so, Ican't lower it any more.. Happy Bidding..

What's the difference (knowing that I have an E series motor)? What is an 'L' series?

.........It's an older Nissan engine that came in 4 and 6 cylinder varieties in Z's, 510's, 200SX's, 610's, 710's, 810's and even in a B210 in Japan, known as the 160Y.

Ok, so it seems that I won't be able to use those in my motor, and also explains why the lift for those is so much different than the Nismo cam. Does that mean macakin got his specially made?

schneider use to make cams for the E series. just like alot of other cam people did. I think even Isky made cams for the E engines.

No Isky didn't, but they'd regrind your stock cam. They ground two of them for me with nice results.
