Re: {Chrysler 300} B cam



I use Valvoline 20/50 VR1 in all of my collector cars from VW to Chrysler.  Also with every oil change I add a 16oz container of Lucas Break In Concentrate which is also very high in Zinc.

One other item, Clay Smith Cams are located close to me and recently I had a conversation with them regarding cams.  At that time they were having problems to get "blanks" to make cams.  I've heard stories that there are only two suppliers for blanks in the U.S.A.  A couple of years ago I was talking with the owner of Engle Cams who was a customer of mine and he was having the same issue getting blanks.  There were big name racers at his throat for product and he was trying to find an answer.

Possibly this has changed but I would suggest anyone looking for such start the search now.

Valvoline VR1 High Zinc is hopefully solving that problem for me.

Especially with modern oils lacking zinc!

And. . .  Those cams are solid lifter cams.  Truth be told, I think Johnnie is gonna have a bigger problem finding decent lifters.   Lotta problems lately with defective lifters.

Hey folks,

Remember, all those early Letter Car cams were already "high performance" versions, but streetable. Probably more like what we used to call "3/4 race" with a lopier idle.
