Int 237 + Exh 242 = 479 / 4 = 119.75 - 112 Lsa = 7.75 * 2 = 15.5 overlap

So if I take the cam Im gonna use in my big block id get 104.5.

Int 321 + Exh 336 = 657 / 4 = 164.25 - 112 LSA = 52.25 * 2 = 104.5?

BTW the cam is a Comp Cams Super Comp

I got the sound, I had to take it out of AOL and paste it in internet explorer??? WTF
Sounds Ok, I cannot tell what his surrondings are. It is almost like he is in a garage and it is distorting the sound alittle. However, the black vette is still the best in my opinion. I heard it was a solid roller with the rpm set at 650.

back on topic: only experience in person is the TRex and F14(232/234 .598/.598 112lsa). like the F14 better, but alot could have to do w/ the exhaust.
