I got the engine that I'm running in my F-toy from a friend a while back. It's got an engblder cam in it. He said it's "an engbldr RV 270*, .430 duration IIRC (highest you can go without clearancing valve/guides cam with 65# valve springs". The header is TRD racing from toyota.

The motor runs great and is fun to drive but I have a lot of trouble with throttle control when I'm trying to crawl stuff.

I don't have the stock cam, so I will probably order and new cam soon, probably within the next couple days. I want something a little more "crawler" oriented. Any recomendations?

Call LC Engineering, tell them what you are trying to accomplish and I'm sure they can set you up.

Thanks but I was kind of hoping that one of you guy's had a recomendation. Trying to cut out that trial and error part.

The DOA motor is working great! I wouldn't change anything about it.
