8000 to 8200 max Jim. New cam will make more torque than the old one.
Are we talking peak HP at 8-8200, or cross rpm???
RPM is ET....in these smallblocks. Converter flash, gear ratio and shift recovery, get it done. With the right hardware, 8000 is not that high these days and should be easy on maintenance.
I agree with all of that Jim. I will be feeling this combo out and give it what it wants. I'm loving the belt drive as I don't have anything in front of it and I can change/play with cam timing in just a few minutes. Clearances were checked within a range both directions from the installed so I know where I can safely play.
