Hi, I live in Brazil, and I and my friend have two small block dodges intented for drag races:

Dart 79
360 stroker (410 pol)
Scat I beams
Keith Black dome pistons
Edelbrock Super Victor
825 cfm demon race carb alky
12.5 compression
4 speed manual transmission
Edelbrock aluminum home ported cylinder heads
camshaft Hugues Engines solid flat taped HTL 6972 (268/272 at 0,50).
The car weights 2450 lbs race ready
The car actually makes 10.8 in the 1/4 mile, at 125 mph.

I have a Comp Cams solid roller camshaft 263/270 at 0,50. Do you think that the comp cams will be better than the Hugues? Would you suggest a better cam for this combo? I'll apreciate your help.


The other car is a Dodge Dart 74
396 pol (318 stroker)
W-2 cylinder heads ported by Ryan J. (admission 278.2 cfm and 183,6 exhaust, at .650 lift)
Ross Dome Pistons
Mopar M-1 intake for W-2
Hugues Engines camshaft 6872 (268/272 at 0.50)
The compression is 14,5: 1
The car wheigts 2350 lbs, race ready with driver, and the best time is 10.2 in 1/4 mile, at 132 mph
A friend sayed to us that the bore of a 318 is very little for this camshaft, what do you think? Would you suggest a better cam?

Both the car use methanol fuel, 4 speed manual transmission, 4.88 rear axle...

We'll apreciate the help very much... actually, the fastest dodge in Brazil with small block has 9.9 in 1.4 mile, and the fastest natural aspirated small block is a Ford Maverick, that does 9.1 in 1.4 mile... Thanks.
