I wonder if that might suggest a slightly more peaky torque curve compared to the 460 found in testing so far?

The 462 has a narrower LSA (102 vs 104) and earlier intake close (14 vs 20). Both help with peak torque.

There is a shop on facebook in Fort Worth, Texas that has played with the Andrews 462 and 464. They have also got some impressive numbers according to their posts. I was interested to find out more about Andrews cams in the M8 myself, but seems that the mainstream m8 community hasn't done much with their cams yet. Check out GMR performance on facebook to see more.

GMR was the only one that posted an M462 sheet on HTT. That appears to be his only experience with the M462. I went through his facebook and didn't see anything else. I think it is a good cam, but I think you would be better off with a TTS150. I'm not at liberty to say why I picked that cam for a replacement, but there is a reason.

Wait you replaced the RD468? How did I miss that?

I was talking about a replacement for the M462. As in instead of using the M462 the TTS150 would be a better choice.

I am still running the RS 468. I am strongly considering either the TTS150 or the TTS200 when I do the 117" kit later this year.

Default Just to clarify...

Are you saying you are not at liberty to say why you chose the tts150 as the better cam?
