Cam Or Carb

courchaine · Feb 7, 2008

Well it's sure that I will get the cam(web .430) and the carb(edelbrock) but what should I Buy first ? what would make the best increase in performance ? I'm personnaly thinking off getting the cam first cause I've just finished jetting my stock carb and it's perfect for now but I just can't decide.Plus a carb is way more expensive but I would like to heard what you guys think ?

thanks

I would say cam.

Honestly jetting is the biggest thing with carbs, meaning hp. If you have yours spot on then IMO going to another one isn't going to yeld hp numbers like a cam will. You will gain things like throttle response and finer adjustment that helps hp. Cam/head plays a huge roll..
If you have a raptor I recomend you keep that carb.

Cam and then carb later.

Build your motor around the carb, the gain will be much larger then.

well I already have Kibblewhite valves springs the only reason why i have a hotcams is because my friend give it to me when he sold his warrior so I've installed the springs knowing that i'll get a web someday.

What is a normal price for a .430 webcam ??
