I'm thinking some of the specs you listed are wrong. The GM Hyd Roller SBC Hot Cam is 218/228 @ .050" not 210/228.

As to reversion on stock manifolds? More than likely you will have a little. There are alot of factors that contribute to reversion. The CC might hurt or it might help having the longer side exhaust vs straight out the back.

I ran a modified Comp XM276HR a few years back in a 355 SBC. It was a 226/230 .537/.511 112+2. I had a very small amount of reversion in the center runners of the exhaust manifolds. I am running FastGlass Stainless risers. I had to weld on 16" inner extensions to prevent reversion.

Now on my 385ci with a 234/240 .580/.568 112+4 I have 22" extensions where the water does not mix until in the tip.

You are correct about the specs. I got them from Gilbert Chevrolet web site. Thinking of going with Comp 08-416-8 marine cam. 212/218 .488/.495. Or getting a set of revolution marine manifolds.
Thanks for the reply

Take a look at the Comp XM270HR 218/224 .495/.503? 112+2LSA Comp says it's the largest you can run with stock ex manifolds. It should run a little better than what you have listed above.
