Hello I am new and have read a ton of posts. Seems everyone has a different opinion or suggestion and the boats are all different sizes and weights. I have looked at Blueprint, Raptor, ATK and others for cam specs. Seems all advertised numbers are not exectly what out of the box cams are.
I have an 06 20' Glastron with 305 and volvo drive. The kids are getting bigger and wakeboarding and skying. This boat is awesome for me and what we do I just want some more torque and speed.
I have an older 350 two piece rear main I was going to build. I think I'm going with a Scat rotating assembly. For the heads probably Dart SHPAluminum 72cc/180cc 2.02/1.60.
I also don't know about wet exhaust or dry exhaust. Eventually I will be going thru hull with Corsa Capt Call. So Cam suggestions are needed.
With a 21 alum prop we go 52-55 (GPS) just 5000. I know ill pick up some speed for sure but also wanting that out of the hole grunt.
Thank you

Thanks for the reply
I should’ve stated I am doing a 383 and the cam was what was in question. Would this cam net me 400+ torque. I should’ve also mentioned that my goal was that as well.
thanks again

Thanks for the input. Looking to buy today I think. Why the 6" vs 5.7"? I see Scat has a nice rotating assembly thats balanced and had dish pistons with 6" rods. Depending on heads it will get me around 9:1 give or take.
Thanks
Thanks

The guy is trying to pump up his SBC in the technical Q&A forum because his kids are getting bigger. You tell him to get out of here because his boat isn’t long enough. We are boaters, this isn’t a country club Judge Smails.
