If you watched a previous video we did with Lake Speed Sr and Jr you saw us load up an old engine he had sitting in his former Winston Cup race shop for almost 20 years untouched! Lake has a 1993 Purex Thunderbird left over from his days as an owner driver that he briefly used in vintage racing in the early 2000s. He has not driven a stock car since then. We are going to refresh this period correct engine and Lake is going to get back in his old car at 74 years old!! In this video we are at Comp Cams in Memphis TN with master guru camshaft scientist Billy Godbold. Billy explains the evolution in cam design over the last 20 years and shows us how to look at a chart and tell how a cam will sound!

I was able to literally spend over an hour with Billy years ago spec'ing a cam for a "magazine" project I was building and writing about that was one of those oddball combos. We literally went through similar discussions of "where in the intake and exhaust tracts the restriction would be" with the various intake/exhaust/head combos and selected lobes to make it all work. And it did! It was a great learning experience and I've used his info ever since. Folks would do well to pay attention.

This just made my (little) understanding of camshaft design go to another level. To see it graphically like that just makes it clear as day. That had to be the most technical yet simple explanation of anything I've ever experienced in my life. I truly appreciate this and the fact Billy took the time out to explain it the way he did. More so if Billy was a professor during my undergrad I'd have had a much easier time in some of my classes. Love learning.

That was seriously profound information from a top tier person who loves sharing it. Fantastic chat. I loved the part where he mentioned two cams can have the same basic specs yet the valve movements travel through those measurements in such different ways that the power output can be dramatically different. I've heard that topic discussed before, but nowhere near as polished and thorough.

I know your channel was originated on trying to create essentially drag & drive vehicles. Just watched Drag Week 2022 and loved it. It was a car show with some drag racing interspersed. Have zero interest in NPK type of drama. Reality shows are anything but reality. I absolutely LOVE this type of content. I can go to 10000 other channels to "watch somebody do burnouts". I know you have likely lost subscribers over the new temporary direction. What some fail to see, or maybe care about, is this build and interviewing all these NASCAR legends will be a historical monument. I'm proud of you for doing it. I know it has it's boring moments for you & some of your subs. But us older folk, that watched these people enter/go thru the sport, appreciate the effort.

Stapleton42, thanks for taking the time to record and post this video. I will keep it in my back pocket the next time I get into a debate about cam disign. The big take away for me was: There is so much more to know about a cam then what it says on the cam card.

I love all the information and love that chart he had. I'm very visual, and it made so much since with that chart and him explaining it.

I LOVE the tech stuff. It showed cams are grinded to the spec engine and it’s application!! He did a AWESOME job explaining it. Love the tech stuff, I’m in Aerospace so more the better and you-gf questions were GREAT!!!

Most interesting thing in the video is the physics lesson on acceleration of the air mass vs piston speed and the relationship to the intake valve opening for the purposes of filling the cylinder. If you get it, you get it, if you don’t, pay a pro to package your engine combination for you and enjoy their hard work responsibly.

So much great info! Really cool to see there is still advancements being made in camshafts, like the smoother ramping.

Thank you for showing this! My "ahh ha" moment was when he was talking about the difference between the two cams with the same printed specs but how they changed the opening and closing rates and how much it affected the actual overall horsepower. For instance I have a Magnum 280 in my 71 Camaro and I've often thought about changing over to the XE 274 which has very similar printed specs accept it's a split pattern cam, but it was never clear to me what would justify the cost. Now I'm actually convinced because I know if there's one thing the XE cams are known for it's the accelerated ramp angle. That Magnum 280 is 70s technology 😂
