Default i know you guys hate this question but engine and tuning guys take a look

ok taking my truck load of parts to my builder and cant stand it. what do you guys think i will be looking at will this combo: as follows

wiseco flow-dome, k1 tech rods and crank 408 with 11.2 cr
unported l92s and l76 90mm tb
cam is comp 232/238 dur 595/605 lift on a 115lsa
full weight 4l60e 10bolt
1 3/4 headers 3" ory stock I pipe hooker aerochamber muffler

the guy that spec'd the cam said i should see tons of low end tq and throttle response
i have been reading all kinds of dyno results and do not even have an idea where i will be sitting when i get it together any ideas guy?

460-480 rwhp and 440 tq. With a 115 lsa and no advance its going to be more of a higher rpm cam. Would make alot better low end on a 111-112 with 2-3 degrees of advance.

Not a fan of the Cam choice.I would try to get the compression up to atleast 11.6-1 and get a Cam with more split and less LSA.

I am not a fan of the lsa on the cam but don't buy into the "you need a big split for l92's".

the cam does have an advance ground in sorry its a +2 or 3 dont have the cam car in my hand at the moment. well i talked to the guy that spec'd it for a long time and he knows what he is doing i assure you that anyways i told him i wanted low end usable tq and not just a big loppy high rpm cam and thats what we suggested and i have seen in this very dyno section cams smaller on similar heads and intake make good numbers guy from synergy made great power on a smaller cam when the heads first cam out and it was on a 116 lsa if i remember i can go back and look so im thing it will really be a strong setup but then again that is why i asked yall thanks for the suggestion and feed back please feel free to post up similar results if you find them and soon as i get it in the car i will be posting up results right back here thanks guy keep the info coming.

Our cams are close (mine is 232/236 600/600 113 + 3 lsa) and I think you will have a beast. I think you will have good results-and I am also interested to see because you AREN'T porting the heads. I have thought and said for a long time it was a mistake on a 364ci-so I am curious as to what your results will be with nonported heads on a 408.

thanks man yeah our cams are pretty close. as for the heads i was talkin to another member that has a set of ported heads and cam spec'd by my guy and i might send the heads to get cnc ported if i get the funds in time i think it would make a world of difference when they open up the exhaust ports. i have also been looking for some roller rockers any one know who makes a good set of bolt on rockers for the l92s? and i looked at your sig and your numbers are sick nice setup
