I only said I got the heads from mike, because he didn't or do I remember the head numbers and they're not near me at the time, yes I figured big heads, big ci, big cam, big carb meant it would make big power excuse me for asking what other people's cams were. Like I said I went from a set of blown 557s to a set of n/a 557s I figured they would produce atleast 700hp but they didn't and I was just trying to see if my motors compared to others build sheets or specs were close or way off . I'm just going to let this thread go I'm over it trying to ask, I've got a call in to bob so I will leave it at that. And as for the heads I got from mike they're great I didn't say anything bad about them other than they may be to big for my application .

You are nothing more than parts salesperson with ZERO knowledge or ability....years of your BS prove that. As far as polesmoker goes his video tells his story better than anything I could come up with to discredit him.

As long as the people sharing it know what they are talking about. People quoting 107 cams for wet exhaust clearly don't

True.

He didn't state if he had a car with a 3500 stall converter, 3.73-4.11 gears, and what the car weighed either.

Come on man, this is Offshore Only. So....an offshore boat probably with a Bravo drive.

Would you run this cam with an I/O driven BOAT and say dry exhaust even?

Scott Birmingham, how are you? That cam in the 540 would idle at 450 rpm. It had 12" vacuum at 900 rpm. Based on its power out put and power range and how its manners were it would work in a marine application with dry exhaust. At 83 degrees of overlap you could not run that in wet exhaust.
