Default What sort of power would this setup make?

383 stroker
10.7:1 compression
LE stage 2 heads with a 230/230 .575/.575 112lsa cam
52mm throttle body
1 3/4 headers, ory, magnaflow

I was told that this cam would give me very good low-mid power, but i'm afriad it would fall off up top? expected redline is 6200-6400.

Why don't you get an LE2 or LE3 cam?

If this is an N/A motor you should increase the compression.

our right, it will fall of up top. Why dont you get a custome grind cam or go with an LE2/3 cam like recomended. Your setup would make more power with the appropraite cam.
