Time tested profile. It will require good exhaust, spring upgrade,and I would do push rods and rockers. A good intake wouldn’t hurt either. 500@5200 or so. I don’t think that’s radical. Any less and the OP won’t notice much difference.

Comp Cams has changed their grind number system I believe. When I was looking for this cam for myself I also came up with the solid roller cam.
This is the cam PH1972 was referring to.
This is a GEN 6 cam but they also make it in Mark IV also.

Hardin/CP Performance also make the almost exact grind for the 454/502/540

I dug out the cam card. Some JEGGS customer’s going to be surprised when this is what shows up for his drag car. Ha

Crane 169611 is an option if you have a good exhaust, and at least 9:1. Don't have much info on the engine though
