I have a 289 equipped with a R2+ camshaft. It has relatively low miles and runs great, just noisy. I contacted Phil Harris, knowing that he built the engine. He told me that the valve lash could be much tighter that a stock Studebaker cam. I went from .024 down to .018 in a couple of increments. The engine sounds better but the valves are still pretty loud.
I'm looking for opinions from those of you running this camshaft. Thanks in advance!
