You did not post what exhaust you are running. That would be the most important part.
I have built several 496 strokers with Bob cams. They run great!

Let's assume these specs...
9.5 compression, EMI Revolution Marine exhaust (comes out under the water), heavy boat, dual plane intake. Current cam is Crane Roller Retrofit --> .553/.556 lift, duration @.050 214/222 --> What would you guess on Horse Power? Do you think this cam is a good match, or could I stand to go bigger?
