Erson TQ50
Hello Guys & Gals, Does anyone here have a sound clip of the Erson TQ50 cam in a BB olds? I am considering this for my buildup using a 68 455 with C heads , headers, 2004-r tranny,3.73 gears in a 87 442..I have talked with Mark about this cam and have been assured that, it indeed has a noticeable idle, but I have been unable to locate any sound clips of this particular flat tappet camshaft ! Just curious as to how it will sound at idle..Thanks

Wow! I thought for sure that I would a hit of some kind on sound clip/characteristics of this cam grind in a big block by now! Apparently no one here running this TQ50 cam.

I too am considering this cam, in fact I'll be calling Mark tomorrow for more info on it.
I'm not educated at all when it comes to cam specs, but I noticed that the specs of the TQ50 are very close to the Comp cam Xtreme Energy XE274H, the Comp having more lift (.504 vs .520 and .523, I have no idea how this would affect the 'sound', performance or engine/head needs)
Maybe there is someone out there with that cam that can give you a sound bite.

I agree....I am considering this Erson TQ50 and also, the Mondello JM 22-25-10...I have been told by Lynn that mondello camshafts are hardened at their facility eliminating the the need for zinc additives for the flat tappet camshafts and include a lifetime warranty...I am considering both and am currently waiting on some more info. from Mark regarding his recommended cam /grind..the TQ 50..
