Who's got the biggest bumpstick? Alright, let's get this over with.
You think you have the a big one? Whip it out.
Cam duration @.050, LSA and/or gross valve lift. Go ahead, show us what you've got.
Don't be shy, we all have one. (or more)
If you plan on posting "ultra secret" specs like 25x/26x, don't bother posting.
If you plan on ranting about how bumpstick size isn't the key to power, don't bother posting.
Dwayne .... don't bother posting.
There are no prizes, no "biggest" list ... just a thread where you can brag about your specs.
Don't forget to specify SR or HR.
I know there have to be some > 248/252 .668/.668 type cams out there with sub-104 LSAs and huge square lobes.

It's still in the car at the moment, I had to rev it to 7k.
And before anyone asks, no, I'm not running a stock bottom end. It's still 350ci, but forged rods and pistons, good bearings, good oil pump, etc.
To be fair, this cam was not spec'd for me when it was made. I bought it second hand from a cz28.com member back in 2006 when I was building my current motor.
I never built it with the intention of having to rev it to 7k, so when I took it to the track, I started out shifting at 6400, it trapped 114 mph...soon I noticed that the higher I shifted, the higher the mph would be, so I ended up shifting at 7k trapping 118-119 mph.
I found out later from LE that Bauer didn't grind any advance into this cam, thus closing the intake valve very late, which explains why it wants to rev so high.
Anyways, it's getting replaced with something better this winter
I guess Bret will just have to get over it

I wouldn't worry about it too much.
Even if you provided cam specs and lobe profiles, it's an outdated design anyhow.
If someone's going to blow $300 on a custom grind, they'd might as well spend the extra $25 or so
having someone design one for their car instead of ripping off something that was designed for someone else's.
