Re: Cam size

[Donald Gallimore <dongallimore@xxxxxxx>]

If it's a hydraulic cam, can you measure the lift, etc., without resting the dial indicator directly on the cam?  My hydraulic lifters (Comp Cam) bleed down when the motor is shut down.

When I need to measure the cam installed centerline, I pull the intake then use a Power House cam checker (or you can try a solid lifter.)

Cory...I think we answered this one for you a few weeks back, but...you need a dial indicator and a degree wheel to get any kind of accurate measurements of the cam in the motor without removing it...otherwise you're just guessing wildly.
