Default Large duration cam guys in here

How big are you going and what kind of numbers are you making? Track and dyno. You can elaborate as much as you wish i.e heads, intakes, and supporting mods. Trying to get an idea of what a current project should make. The cam is 248/252 with some AI heads. TIA

mine is 264/271 it made 451rwhp through a 12 bolt,th400 and a 5200 converter
the 451 rwhp was at only 7000 rpm where the stock computer gave out
I know when the cam was in Steve Quins motor he used to spin it to 8500 and ran 9.7 with it N/A

248/252 sounds like the Joe Overton cam I had before this one and made crap power

I see your solid roller with the new cam. We're just starting on a solid roller 396 for a track car. Hope we have better luck than you did with this cam. It's a cammotions grind. What LSA was it and what heads were you using?
