Almost nobody is listening *****, but that's to be expected.

On the street it would probably be better but what about on the track. How about with a 150-200 shot?
would a lsk 242 .621 work better on the exhaust?

Hey Pat,

You spec'd a cam for my girlfriends car awhile ago that is similar to the one above, unfortunately during the install we discovered cylinder number 8 was bad.

I was wondering how many cubic inches it can support? Originally it was for a 346.

The cam spec's are 238/241 110+4 (cam doctor specs)
