4: Time it took to receive your regrinded cams,

1.5 weeks. 7 days of UPS Shipping, 1.5 days me sending in and them getting the cams. :mad:

 

5: What power improvements (hp and/or torque) gains or loses have you observed, tested, and/or noticed.

Cams are not installed just yet. Just got them in today. The T-shirt they sent was nice. *Chest swelling up* I will post dyno results once I get them in.

I don't know if this info is out there already, but Delta's EA82 cams are the same for turbo and NA.

 

I was afraid they sent me NA cams for my turbo because there was no T on the receipt and the order went a little too smoothly (they had some in stock).

 

Just gave them a call. They said they use the turbo grind for all setups. Noted improved performance and simple billing. So has anyone stuck stock turbo cams in a NA car?

let me know how the xt6 cams go, as for that price I would punch myself repeatedly if I didn't get some

I installed the deltas in a DL SPFI wagon with a 3AT...2wd.

 

it really made no difference to the bottom end...midrage was a teeny better...but mostly the top end was opened up really well...aka power PAST 5500 rpms.

I just picked up a cam for my 83 wagon, what all is involved in installing them. Does the engine have to removed. Any word on how ea 81's react to new cams.

 

Thanks

David

New cam in an ea81 requires virtually a full rebuild of the engine and you might as well while youre at it.
