Title: Cobra Jet cam
Post by: Peter L. on March 30, 2023, 12:44:14 PM
  Looking for recommendations for a stock replacement cam for my KR. Car is a 4-speed with A/C, ps and pb.
              Thanks, Pete.

I am not an expert. I have been told that a Lunati #10503 is a clone and that a comp cam #265 DEH is a modern replacement. I have never used either. I hope this helps. Royce has built many engines , and will know.

We've had good luck with the Melling MTF-4.

I've been using the Comp Cams 268H-10 grind in 427 and 428CJ's for years. It's a good choice. Smooth idle, lots of vacuum. A little more cam than the stocker but not much more.

  That Comp 268 H sounds like what I need. Thanks for the input.

Most excellent choice
