What is the difference between an M106 cam and

[Jesse]

say a 535i cam?? I'm running an M106 cam at the moment. I still have my original 82' 525i euro high comp M30 cam too. I don't know anything(spec-wise) about either cam. I'm not even sure why I decided to run the 745 cam when I built my head in the first place. I may not have had a reason other than the fact that it was maybe less worn.

somebody posted the specs in the tech section. Don't remember what they were off hand.

Edit :supposedly it is a 264 cam

But looking at the BMW torque specs, you would think it was radically different, especially at the low end.

As I said "supposedly the number is"...

Even as an owner of an M106 I would not know the "what's and why's" of the different cams. I'll leave that to the experts.
