    i just found 320 degree duration cams for a 1st gen 3sg. that's just insane.

    well eric i've looked at my options and i think i'll stay with the GE cams. but i would like springs and retainers.
    so olympic for the seals, toyota for the buckets, now to find springs and retainers...
    so looks like i'm getting seals.
    eric can you look up the springs and keepers? everywhere i find them they are just f'ing retarded expensive.

    Why on earth would you need a 320 deg. cam on anything? I doubt it would even idle.

    That would make sense. There is a guy here in montana who has what he claims to be a Toyota Pan-Atlantic 3sgte. I dont know where the Pan in the name comes from but i went and took a look at it about 2 years ago and it was a bad ass lookin gte. If i would have had the 4k he wanted for it i would have bought it. As far as i know he still has it. He had a couple of Cosworth Escorts and a few other really rare cars.

    with that much duration, wouldnt you be worried about excessive overlap? and losing intake charge because of it?

    could you find them for the 320 cams you had found?

    those cams are made by toda. they only work at above 5 or 6K rpm. i think you need a starter box to get the motor running.
