I’d be looking at cranes 651 cam. The 741s I had fell on their face @ 5200ish with my old 565s and 320 heads. 651s woke the engines up. I was at 9.2:1 iirc

That looks like a much better cam for my size motor. Read some threads on the 651 and some guys have made some good power with motors up to 598 cu inch with this cam.

Thanks

Used a Crane with 4 degrees more intake duration than a 651 on a 533 10:1 deal a few years ago, didn't seem to make any more power than the 651 in the previous 540 setup so hindsight I would suggest sticking with the 651 if doing it again. Great cam.

the 651 with the right heads will probably work fine, I dont see the 088's flowing enough to make a big difference with a cam only change, remember he's running up in the mountains 6400'
