Once again I dip my bucket in to the well of the Triumph collected wisdom.
My 1961 TR3A engine is in the shop getting a complete rebuild
(balancing, 87 mm pistons and sleeves, rear crank oil seal, head
rebuilt, etc). The old cam is shot, so I need to buy a new one. The
shop owner tells me that unless I go for a wild racing cam, there are
few ramifications of a "hot" cam on compression, carbs, valves,
valve springs, and such. Given such latitude, what is the group's
thinking about going with a little spicier cam? I don' t intend to
push the car too hard when it is done, but I do have this one
opportunity to tweak the engine a little. Any ideas?
