Hi.
Thanks for the reply. I am after full spec such as the piper cams below for standard engines.

https://www.pipercams.co.uk/Camshafts-Car/Make-Ford/Engine-FORD-PUMA-1.7-16v/
Once opened go on the select and open the options it gives duration, full lift, timing etc. etc.

Hi Richard,

I think FRP cams have an additional 1 mm of valve lift in comparison to the regular ones. Also, duration is longer a bit

it must be very close to the PUMBP270 or PUMRBP270 profiles. Not a long time ago piper also sold the FRP spec cams but it seems they no longer do.

Hi All.

Thanks for the replies Sorry to be a pain, can anyone assist with answers to the following.
Comparing all of the below to FRP camshafts.

1. Does anyone know how the FRP cams supplied by Puma Speed compare? Has any one fitted them? How do they perform?

2. The same as 1 but for LM1 and LM2 cams supplied by Lightening Motor Sport.

Many thanks in anticipation.

Richard.
