Curious to see the difference between d, e, and f. For fun I'll say d.

L for the ell of it.
Mt, when you run these syms against a known and dynoed build how close do they come with the curve and peak?

I cant find cam card, i bought it years ago. Use afr 335 cncs for the flow to make it easy, see what cam your program says it needs, going to start with this cam but probably wont be in it when im done. My performance trends software shows it at about 700 hp but im going to have to see it on dyno to believe it with only 8.5/ 8.6 compression. Motors already built and fresh leftover from Baja, going to see what hp limit is using lowest octane motor likes without spark knock, thanks, Smitty

Pretty close. But of course theres lots of variables. Main reason i chose mostly crane cams for this , is because, they give you a bunch of info on the camshaft. You get seat timing events, as well as .050. Putting in specs of just .050 and lift, dont tell you much about the cam. Some cams have 2 deg of advance built in, some have 4, some have 5, etc. That alone can dictate the powerband etc.

Isn't the real trick to figure out which cam makes the most power early - based on the average power from 3500 up.

Remember, Crane does seat at .004", pretty much everyone else does .006".

You know you have it right when you simply enter all the timing events, and it spits the exact cam specs out from the cam card. Howver, you can enter advertised duration and 050, and have completely different timing events .
