I ran the lunati voodoo 60303 cam in a 70's low compression 440 and it ran quite well after I curved the distributor to suit it. The voodoo 60302 would make for a good running cam in your combo and being a 400 instead of a 440 you'd likely want to take it a notch down from what I ran .

Are you sure on the 80cc? To get 452's do to 80cc, I think you need to whack something like .100" off them. That much milling introduces some other issues as well...

FWIW I have one of the direct connection race books and there's so much crap info in there I threw it on the shelf and haven't looked at in in years.
