Just got the motor out, had a crane 741 cam in it, those are supposed to pull pretty good rpm in a 509 with a blower?? Guess maybe it had valvetrain stability issues??

I don't know any of the crane numbers. See if the valve locks are stuck bad and take a look at the valve shims that can tell you a lot if it was not stable.

If nothing else, that’s the easiest cam to sell if it’s in good condition.

The 741 has a little more overlap than a norm blower cam,ital work and make the power,mine has a little tracking from low port velocity, but prob the reason i can run more boost on 93, the cam company's should have a good marine blower cam. also would call Kip at Cam Motion, he was making some big power on the old (HotRod mag)Pump gas drags, I would think that would carry over to marine blown on 93 etc. I wouldn't run a solid roller, just harder to adjust the lash with headers,Ive ben running solids on street cras/race cars awhile, really dont see much change in valve adjustment,but i do spend the extra running the Crower stuff,helps a buddy thats WD with Crower to.
You should beable make 800's easy with the heads your talking about,My Scarab motor /494.8/71,2 1050's,innercooler made 828 at 7200 w/ hyd roller, Crower lifters,All Crower guts.
My Hustler is 500efi,741 cam,I ported the stock steel heads myself,whipple 3/3 etc, it made 840s at 6-6100, 8.5 boost, Last rebuild went with new Dart block,no other change except dyno w/ 93 ethanol fuel made 883 at 6000.thats crane 741,crane gen 6 style 500efi hyd lifters,gold rockers, 1 step above 929 spring,

If ya get to radical on cam etc the idle gets worse, docking,

I didnt read the hole thread, not sure your carb or fuel inj, just my 2 cents.

good luck with your combo,
Rob

I was afraid to over cam it and have a motor that didn’t idle well, seems people have seen 62-6400 rpm with the 651 crane cam and this one is about the same size just a touch less lift, so I thought it would be plenty of cam??
