    *o*Delta 282*o*

    So I rebuilt my head and put a Delta 282 regrind cam in it just to see what it could do, for shyts and giggles. I had read up on a similar build that ran the 282 with stock valve train and taken a STOCK bottom end to 7.5K, so i figured, why not.

    I got a basemap put on my P28 by a North Georgia tuner who goes by of Scotty. Since the cam was so big, he ended up using a dyno setup from another customer slighty-built f22a with bolt ons, and throwing more fuel in it.

    Now, when I first started it up I was running open header for a day, just to test it out. That got old, REAL quick.     : My first impression of the car was that it idle considerably rough. It didn't cut off, but it was pretty rough... BUT I LIKE IT! The bottom end seems to be almost completely NON-EXISTENT! But, good things come to those who wait, because right at 2K the cam starts to come to life...then 3K you can feel it pulling... ... and right about 4K to 7K+, its amazing.

    Now its been about 4 weeks, and as far as daily driving, its just to sluggish. All-in-all, my question is:
    Considering, besides a make-shift GSR intake, im STOCK, could I safely bump my compression up with some 12:1 pistons? Also, would stock, shot peened rods hold up?
    Please feel free to post specs on the Delta 282 (    mostly because I have no clue) and leave any COMSTRUCTIVE comments.

    sounds like you need some dyno tuning with that cam

      I do, but I don't want to go until I get a decent header and my exhaust made. I want a Bisi header, but I haven't got up the nerve to sell crack yet, so I need something a little more modest.

      But definably, I will get the motor dyno tuned once I get the exhaust addressed.

        Thats what happens when you overcam an engine before its ready for it. It will probably perform much better after your other upgrades and some tuning.

          raise your compression and that thing will scream.

            A Bisimoto cam will give you better overall performance and driveability as it was designed for this motor. The Delta cams being regrinds shift the powerband higher to make power, losing low-end. Same deal with my Delta 272 on my red Accord, main powerband is 4-7K RPM.

            After looking at some graphs on Bisimoto's level 1 & 2 F22 cams, they are better overall. I wish I had a level 2 on my red, but that project is done. Just a daily driver now.

                If you saw how low that car is in person you would realize he does not give a fuck.

                  The 282 on stock block/head sucks.

                  You really need higher compression, at least 10:1 to take advantage of that camshafts powerband.

                  With some higher compression and some intake manifold mods, you would probably see close to 200hp, with h22 torque numbers. The only thing that sucks is your valve train probably won't last too long, stock.

                  Your low end will pick up much better with higher compression as well.

                  Even the 272 regrind is a bit much for stock f22a's.

                    Thanks for the advice!

                    I've decided the F will need some Bisimoto 12:1 Shelf Pistons on some shot peened rods. Hopefully, with modest driving, the head can hold up intil i get the Bisimoto Stage 2 Head Package!!!

                    Also, my mechanic left a little bit of valve lash because the cams so big. The valves tick a little bit... is this the safest options as far as stock valve trane is concerned?

                      the lash should be set to whatever the manufacturer recommends, not what the mechanic thinks is right.

                        Yea, but i'm running stock valve trane, and he said that if he would have tightened them any more, the springs would have just snapped. Matter of fact, what are the recommendations from delta on what to set the lash at?

                          Does Delta make a 272? That would be better for the DD

                          Higher compression too
