The cam is his "small" one since we have a smaller engine, but the duration at 0.400 is 91 degrees so the intake valves are open more than 0.700 for a quarter rotation of the engine.

Andy, this 460 motor has interested me for years. My very first thought was a fabricated tunnelram and twin throttle bodies, running e85 would make a dynomite combo, especially if the 557 size is not too tough to do. A local racer / engine builder runs 598 cube 385 series Fords, dialing 7.80 in the 1/4 on gasoline. One of my last outings i was unlucky enough to race him, and he went 7.80 on a 7.80 dial.
