Default Blower style cam running NA....

So over the past year I have slowly gathered enough parts to get my motor and supporting mods installed. Currently just waiting on a transmission from Frank and ill get the car in the shop.

my question is the motor was built for a procharger in mind. I won't havr enough cash untill probably next year to buy the procharger race kit.

my build consist of:
LME 403 11:0:1 compression
callies crank and rods
wesico boost pistons
LME ported Brodix BR1 heads 245int runners (370cfm) @ .700
TSP 1 7/8 Longtubes w True duals
FAST 102 w 102TB
Holley fuel rails
Johnson Lifters
BTR shaft rockers
Mighty mouse catch can
Chris 1313 twin 525s fuel system
Cam shaft- 236/256 116+4 .640 .630

All tubular suspension under car.
Ford 9" Rear 35 spline true trac
stage 3 built 4l60e made by Frank.

So as you can see my cam has a pretty wide split on durations. I wanna go ahead and get the car running so I can enjoy driving it for a while.

How do you think the cam is gonna perform NA? I am optimistic about getting over 500 rwhp just motor . Idk if anybody has any experience running this wide of duration from what I can find. So anybody with simular builds please chime in!! I'm excited because I've spent a $#!t ton of money on this build and hoping for good numbers especially when I get the prochargwr.

It might not be "ideal" but it will be fine. I'm sure you will get over 500rwhp with that build. I'm guessing 510.

Keep us posted.

I would be happy with 510. Just hoping the cam doesn't keep it from performing that well. We will see.

Your build looks solid! Cam should work great for NA power.
