..Steve..you have some experience with the comp XE268.How do they compare?
I'm thinking with a gear the .474 might E.T. better and the 268 would help a low compression engine and have better bottom end.
What's the least gear you would expect the .474 to like with a 4 speed,3.55?..my 3.23's are shot?

Well, let me tell you exactly how they compare. The XE268 has a modest lope and decent vacuume for the street. The Hemigrind has a chop that has a meaner sound but less vacuume. As far as peak power and rpm, they are pretty close; this would make a good dyno test but I would guess they are within a few HP. Both are very good street cams and will pull strong to 6000+ in a 340.
