This calculator is fun to play with when all the cam info isn't readily available.

With parts out of the box I think "L"

K is pick # 1 / C is pick # 2

Meaning like, say, 650HP is better at 5500 than at 6000?

------------------------------ d -----------------------------------------

from the info listed i will go with H.

This should be interesting. Are you going to average every 100 or 200 rpm?

sort of. Since it is an average it just as important to make power at 3500 as it is to make it at 6000. So your peak power is going to be below 6000. It is a game of maximizing area under the curve.
That's what I think anyway

if we were looking for power above 6000 rpm my choice would be different.

That was my thought when I said D

I'll go with G

I'd use cam G but put 1.8 rockers on for more lift. That will change the duration numbers slightly but I want the lift for high end flow. Great project, thanks for sharing the info.

I am going to pick G, just because it is the closest to the cam that I am using. Although my engine is nothing like the one listed. G----final answer

Are we allowed to phone a friend?

bottom of the page racing(BOTPR) says M.:D

My money is on "J" .. We used this cam on a 10:1 533 and it performed well throughout the range.

Im gonna start running some simulations tonight. :bong:

Not sure how it relates to average numbers but I've always tried to get the max torque and horsepower to be the same. They will be at different rpm's but I feel the camshaft is maximum for the cubic inches when this occurs because the torque number is usually the largest. A bigger horsepower number usually involves higher rpm and lower torque peak numbers. If the torque max is larger than max horsepower it's usually down low the rpm range and high end horsepower suffers.

M then K and let's hope those abbreviations are incorrect. M on a 112 would neat to see. The 651 has a nice flat curve also.

I (651)

:cool-smiley-011:::boat:

2.5 hours later, and i'm almost done.

Why did i start this thread. lol I'm dreading having to scan and upload all these results. :poopoo:

I'll need you guys to let me know when you want to wrap up the voting.

Post the results:evilb: voting ended. . . Trump won:lolhit:

He's stimulating himself, so I would guess it will be a long night. LOL

200 page mark.

Joe WAIT Bob didn't guess yet:whistle::party-smiley-004:

Yes he did.... Just ask tim force:party-smiley-004::poopoo::angry-smiley-038:

Joe I'm pretty certain many appreciate what your doing though. It's real decent of you. I realize it's not spot on however seemed fairly close from others you did in the past.

I have a favor to ask though and when you complete if you could use the winning cam with 305 AFR CNC heads. That would be interesting to see same set up with same cam only head change. Might do some side bets on that one if you'd post it some time.

He does this in his sleep. I'd say he already knows. But ya I was gonna mention same thing earlier. Hah

You ALMOST had it man. The 741 is the winner. However, once I advanced it 4*, it lost. :party-smiley-004:

The 741 Cam, made the most AVERAGE power, from 3500 to 6000rpm.

It's amazing what a good set of heads can do... on an earlier simulation we went from a standard merc BBC head to 335 afr's and gained 90hp with same cam

Now how about the most peak power under 6k?

Im going to upload all the results first, of each cam.

Here's the Lunati's which were A, B, and C in the group.

Phuck Yea!!! Winning just like Charlie Sheen:thankyouthankyou::evilb::wizard::bananalove:

Here are the Cranes. All same durations and lift, only change is LSA. The 525EFI cam (114), the 741 cam (112), and 801 cam (110LSA)

Here's the 168771 240/248 114 LSA .621/.632, the 168811 242/246 112 LSA, .632/632, and the 169651 244/256 114 LSA .632/632

Heres the 169691 248/256 114 LSA .632/.632 , and the 168831 254/262 110 LSA .680/.680 lift .

Howards 251/257 110 .629/.629 and the 253/259 .657/.640

Nice work, Joe! That's pretty darn cool.
