Had one similar in my 69 RR 383 4 speed. Kept kicking pushrods till I used adj Isky rockers. Last time it kicked the pushrod, lost oil pressure and piggy backed a rod bearing. Still have the 383 & 4 speed, car long gone, to my dismay. Has manly pistons, pop ups.

From what I remember about them....... they were just another source for the “white box specials” coming out of the big cam suppliers(camshaft machine, etc).

Not much lift with just a little more duration than the old hemi cams, I believe they were 222 @ .050.
Have a great day Iowan

Not sure what you are looking for but I stuck the biggest Summit cam for a small block in my 360. Runs very good but does not sound like it has a cam in it. Real smooth with 14* initial and 35* total on the mechanical.

I just got alot of old school parts stashed away and ive two stroker motors in two of my cars, freshen a few up a year for friends and im actually just having fun working with a couple low power buids with oem blocks and head castings to see how things run and what I can do to improve on them. I dont recall a day when very young that a warmed over mill still didnt make for a decent time. Not sure what you are looking for but I stuck the biggest Summit cam for a small block in my 360.
