anything bigger than a 244/244 .612/.612 on a 112lsa. I am building a 427 and the budget can't handle a solid roller conversion right now. I know the S1 cam is proven to make good power, but seems kinda wimpy for a big cube motor. Any one running a hydrolic cam in 25x/.6xx range or bigger? Dyno #'s and track times please if ya got them please. Just wondering how big you could go with a max effort hydrolic set-up, and no this isn't a daily driver, lol

Mine isnt that big.
244 250 .634 .625 112lsa but I only have a Lunati stroker and not a big bore.
I am getting gears next week and MIGHT switch to something a little bigger.

What's funny is that at the time people thought the R1 was a big cam! Folks thought I was nuts when we went to the S1.

wish I had dyno number or track times for you but I was trying to deal with comp cams about ordering this custom cam 250/256 .620/.626 112 LSA but had no luck for alittle over 1 month
I finally got a hold of someone that knows there stuff. So I will have a cam close to that soon. I only have 410ci and if I had a 427 I would try to go even bigger. I know theres proven cams out there but I want to try something different and try to step it up to the next level like these guys are doing with those lil 346's

good luck, your car should make some nice power with all those parts!
Post a dyno graph when you dyno the car.
