Default Hydraulic roller maximum...

My search skills SUCK.


Looking to maybe up my cam a little. I do not want solid roller.
In a 402....11:1.

What kind of duration and lift would be maximum? Morel lifters, Dual Gold springs.
I haven't researched it all the much lately.
Currently = 248/254 629/622 113

Looking at something like a 254/258 633/630 111-112

TIA!

I like the current cam...but I am looking for a little more in the upper RPM's.

My FAST is at Mamo's to get ported, that will probably help as well.

6700 or so.
Mostly a street car.

Maybe I should stick with the cam in there and bump compression a touch.

You are looking at sticking a Donkey (blank) in your girl I see. I hope she likes it.

What kind of numbers are you putting down currently that you want to change?

I don't want to makes adjustments on a car I drive 95% of the time on the street.

there are some pretty big hydraulic roller cams out there, tsp has a 257/266 and there are alot of them in the 25x/26x range but with a bump in compression to around 12:0 or so and that ported intake you should pick up quite a bit and with those huge cams you will probably need to turn 7k to take advantage of the higher peak they will probably have. 6700 sounds like where you should be shifting your current cam anyways,it probably peaks @ 6200-6300.

Hmmm...
Maybe I will just see how the port of the FAST does. It currently flatlines at roughly 6000. I know that cam has a little more in it.
