Aggressive & Drag-Grind |
Chose the Aggressive-Grind... for outstanding top end power-output, time attack and drag racing.
Great for builds of 15PSI and tested on our customer cars up to 40 PSI.
While Streetable, there is a mean 'loping' idle as can be heard in the video.
-Grinds for hydraulic lifers are compatible with OE BMW hydraulic lifters
-Should only be used along with our valve spring kit. |
- High performance valve springs are highly recommended with all performance cams that will see sustained high RPM use, especially these family of engines. They provide a greater safety margin with high performance use and help protect your motor during high RPM use.
VAC Tech Tip:
Please specify OE Lifters or Solid Lifters when ordering our Aggressive grind. Solid lifters are ideal for builds with RPM ranges beyond 7300 RPMs, but require camshafts to be removed to adjust valve lash. They are identical in spec, but the sold lifter cam set has a special taper that allows you to properly set valve lash for your Solid Lifters.
