Did Lloyd happen to mention what kind of rpms you will be looking at with that cam? I'm wondering where it might peak at. Thanks

Static compression is only part of the question, dynamic compression also needs to be considered.

With a donkey dick cam like that you could run 12:1 static and still be ok. Of course you would want a conservative timning curve in the tune.

Jmo of course. Talk to lloyd about it, he will steer you right.

Sounds almost exactly like my cam, 236/242 .612/.612 110+4. Gonna run them on a 383 with SRP pistons, Dragonslayer Cam, Lunati Rods and TFS 195cc heads that have been ported and flow 330 at .600 lift. Should make good power. LOL
