We are using the 2014 Lone Star Legacy rules. >>> http://www.lonestarspeedzone.com/topic/59082-updated-2014-lone-star-legacy-rules-1282014/

 

We are working on rewording the cam rule with help from Bob Riley to make it clearer, but the cam rule will be the same as the cam that was legal in 2014 which is the cam that cam that came with the original Allison sealed engines. James has a tool that measures the cam while still in the head. If you need to have your cam measured, check with James Huff.

 

We looked into the cam situation last year and here was the results of this research:

 

After much discussion and several phone calls and discussion with several different individuals familiar with the original Allison Legacy rules (including one of the Allison brothers), we have settled on a cam that we believe will put everyone back on even footing.

From this date forward, the only cam permitted in the Lone Star Legacy series is the stock cam that is described in the Chilton manual for the 1987-1993 Mazda B2200 truck motor. This cam is readily available, inexpensive and is the cam that the Allison engines came with according to Mr. Allison.

James Huff has a tool that easily detects cams that do not meet the cam specs, so if you have any question as to the legality of any cam you may have on hand, feel free to have James measure it. No need to remove anything but the front cover and the valve cover in order to get inspected. Or, you can hand the cam to James and he has a cracked head that he uses as a test bed.

Also, the cam pulley must be aligned with the TDC of Number one piston so that the “1” or “A” is at the top of the pulley. This was also discussed at length with Mr. Allison and is the way all their engines were sent. At one point, in fact, the cam pulley was sealed, but some of the seals became dislodged and got under the belt and caused problems.
