Sounds like a great build. My question, what cam could I get that will produce close numbers with same combo but low 9-1 comp. Don't want a roller just hyd.




Sorry, but there's no free lunch. There isn't any build I could suggest that would give you numbers close to mine without using a roller cam and higher compression. I had a flat tappet solid cam and 9.6:1 with iron heads before this upgrade which made decent power and torque (500 HP and 528 TQ) but at much higher RPM and nowhere near as flat a curve. Don't forget, it's not all in the components, there's lots in the friction reduction and assembly that helps make the power at the back end of the crank. I built this combo to make good bottom end torque to work with my overdrive trans which gives me a nice highway cruise at 1900 RPM. I don't need or want big top end RPM.
