FP3X on a 2.0L?

[JeanDSM]

Well I got a great deal on some FP3X brand new also I have a 6 bolt 2.0L block and a 100mm crank on my garage I am building a stroker but that is going to take a while beacuse I still need wiseco, eagles, H/G, ARP's, etc. etc. So I was thinking what if I install those FP cams on my current setup (look my profile) until I finish my build? Will it work or just move the powerband to a place I cant use?

I would just hold of on the cams for now.


just wondering, but why did you mount your bov so close to the ic?

Well It was by accident, I just dont like how GM MAF sensor looks and I wanted to place it somewere not so visible after I welded all the pipes and leave the BOV position for last then I remembered that the bov should be before the sensor and I tought it would look cool there.

Install the cams. Degree them correctly and you will be fine.

It should not matter where the BOV is mounted. I had mine right after the turbo outlet on my mirage. Never had any issues.

if you dont have atleast upgraded valve springs i would hold off on putting them in.

from FP
FPCam3x
Dual valve springs required. Be sure to install your springs with 280+lb over the nose, STDuals need 1.470-1.480" installed height. This camshaft has the highest valve acceleration that is allowable with our dual valve springs. The FPCam3x has more lift and faster ramps than the FPCam3.

well i think ill hold on them, thnaks for the replys...

Update on the FP3X needing dual valve springs for anyone that wants to use these cams. Kiggly racing recommend that I use their high pressure original beehives which are good to 40psi at 8500rpm.
