the Eagle crank would be the part i would be concerned with but a cam at 280+@050 would be a shoe-in.

How about more specs. Bore, stroke, head flow, valve sizes.

Sorry but this is my neighbors hodge podge of parts.As for the bore it is a .030 over 440 block with a girdle.The heads hav,nt been on a flow bench,so i have no idea on what they flow.Valves are the originals that indy supplied with the heads.He has talked to several cam companies and they all recommend running something different and this has him confused.Myself i,ve never run alcohol so i have no idea what kind of centerline he needs or duration. He said they mentioned that he would need a cam with a centerline of 112 or greater to use with injection.

The best I can do, never ran a roller before.
