CAM suggestions please OK guys, here is the motor:
SDPC 408 iron block with 14cc relief diamond pistons
Callies crankshaft
Callies H-beam rods
Finally assembly will have .040" headgaskets.
I am still undecided on the heads, but I will make them so I am running 11:1 CR without milling. I am looking for around 550RWHP, but more would be nice. I want the minimum output at 550RWHP - less will be kind of disappointing.
decision factors:
It is a 6 speed car on a 10 bolt running a 3.73 gear. Eventually a 12 bolt will go in, and I will up the gear ratio to a 4.10 if need be in order to run a monster cam like I want.
I drive the car everyday right now, but that will change this summer. So, it should be streetable, but barely
.
Kris Jones at SDPC is currently working with me to attain some custom grind specs to meet my requests. The option is still open and nothing has been decided on. I can say this - I want one mean cam lope. You know, the kind that I like to call "earth shakers".
Does anyone know how high of a lift I can go with using a 14cc valve relief and unmilled heads? I know it will be pretty high, and I love that. Also, any ideas on duration or LSA? Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
