What kind of lift/duration would ideally be optimum?
I have to run the numbers in the engine sim package i use and try a few different combos.
Believe it or not, cams with around 270ish intake/exhaust duration don't idle lumpy in KA's, it's when you get above 285ish and over that it idles cranky.
Pringles has a huge duration cam in his ca20, around 300 for intake and exhaust, from what i've heard it doesn't like cold mornings but never stops pulling hard when you get on it.
