Cam Question
#1

I just got my Cartek M cam (which I bought from someone on this board) and was wondering if anyone knows anything about this cam? How much of a gain to expect, what change in idle? I see on the cam it has 3712R / 3715R HR 113 LS1 X6442 what does all this mean? I think it is a comp cam but Im not sure of the grind. Im sure all the writing tells me this but I am new to the custom grind cams. I know the cam is suppose to be a 218/222 with a .562 lift and 113 LSA. I was wondering if I can use my stock push rods or do I need to get new ones and if so what? Thanks for any info you can provide.

Correct. The right way to order a custom grind LS1 Comp cam is:
********************
54-000-11
LS1 3712R/3715R HR114+4
********************
Where 3712R and 3715R are the desired lobes, 114 is the desired LSA, and +4 is the desired advance/retard.
