200ci 200 Camshaft dimensions

[sig]

Hi
I am from Brazil and new here. I have a 95 Ford truck made in argentina F1000, it is equivalent to the 87-91 F150 made in US, but the 93-95 made in Argentina had the 221 Economax small.
I have done several improvements in that small engine getting so far 141rwhp and 21rwkgfm (152lbft) torque with big tires 32".
The engine has a Crespo camshaft (Argentinean) with 241int/240exh @ 050 and 109 lsa. I miss some torque at low and mid range, so I am looking for any Claysmith camshaft for US 200 that will help to detiver a better low end torque as the H-274-8-B.
In order to check the US 200 camshaft fitment to my 221, I am trying to find some detailed information of the small 200 camshaft dimensions (cam length, cam bearing diameter, cam tip length and diameter were is installed the cam gear, etc).
Does anyone know those dimensions of the 200 cam?
Thanks

How did you get the Aussiespeed intake to fit. crow in Australia also makes cams that should fit your engine:-https://crowcams.com.au/product/ford-pre-crossflow-hydraulic-6
This is about what you need in a truck, your 240 degree is far to large for you.

I agree with you, that is too big cam for a truck. I will get I touch with crowcams.
I did develop an adaptor with a locla mechanical shop in Brazil to adapt the aussiespeed intake. See some pictures attached from the time I was still using 4bbl carb and before I adapt the injectors.
I am considering to move to an ITB made by a local manufacturer: https://carlinicompetizione.com.br/produto/kit-de-admissao-ford-falcon/

Some pics of the aussiespeed intake adaptor for Argentinean 221 Economax Cylinder Head, when I was still using 4bbl carb, and a video after adapt the injectors.

Very nice work. How much trouble did you have getting the manifold? The adapter you made is similar to what Ford used on the Crossflow EFI engines here, they have the injectors mounted in it just like you have done. What is the local supply of engine parts for the Argentine engines, eg pistons bearings etc? Just for your amusement here is my crossflow six, its 3.3litres.

So, it looks like the Argentina cylinder head is similar to the Oz 2V head being a non-log style head with a separate intake manifold....? Wonder what its performance potential is...?

At least as good, possibly better with true separated exhaust ports. Not as good as Australian crossflow head.

You need a cam with less duration which has already been established, What lift does your current cam have and what ratio rockers are you using?

I see so many cams for these engines that do not have anywhere enough lift in nearly all applications. Most of the crow cams benefit from more lift also.


There is a affordable higher ratio rocker kit being developed as we speak for off the shelf cams to address this.

I know the Oz 2V head has gotten crazy expensive and wondered if the Argentina head might be an alternative. The Crossflow head is for sure the pinnacle of the best head available if your up for doing the required mods to install it on a US block....
