Mopar says 108

No, mopar says 106! Ive only installed it at 104.5 * advanced and above. This cam can and will make power you just need to match the rest of the combo. Great cam IMO.

But if your intentions are for a more streetable designs there are some other options. mike

The centerline listed in the MP catalog is 108

---

You are correct! The MP catalog lists the Cam centerline as 108. But that 108 represents a Cam Lobe sep of 108*

It also states a 106* installed centerline of 106* witch represents crank degrees.

It can get confusing, mike

Not as good as the above 10.52/3250# combo But with more comp. 12.5 or so 9.9?s or so wouldnt be a problem. mike

(3000 stall and 391's or better) I don't know why everybody is stuck on this. My 70 valiant with stock 77 shortblock, 509 cam, stock steel heads. 3500 chepo converter and 3.23 gears runs great on the street and on the track.
11.90's @115 first time out less than 3,500 in the whole car. It idles @ 900rpm in gear, and has gobs of low end grunt.

As was said that cam will rock & roll with the right combo behind it. It likes alot of quick ign advance and and the cam set in the 102 to 104 area. And of course you need the gear and converter to make it work. As for gas milage.............if you worry about that you are in the wrong hobby. Ron

I have this cam, Comp 292/299 .509/.509 in the 440 in my '69 Charger. The engines zero decked, Keith Black flat tops, Crane Gold race roller rockers, Edelbrock closed chamber heads, Torker I intake, Holley 870 Street Avenger, Rhoads lifters , etc etc.

It has a B&M 3200 converter and 3.55 gears.

The car flat out hauls ass, I don't get where the "no low end power" is coming from here . It launches hard and drives extremely well under 3000 rpm even with the 3.55 gears.

The only thing I don't like is the noisy Rhoads lifters, but they do help the cam out, 15-17" vaccum at idle ( I added a vaccum canistor where the battery used to be).

You don't like the Rhoads Lifters, take them out & suddenly you'll know where the "no low end power" comments are coming from... 15-17hg of vacuum.. of course it runs normal.. Try it with normal lifters where you start with 6hg after tuning you get 9-11hg...
