I am rebuilding a 440 0.030 over that was rebuilt 20 years ago ( has been sitting most of the time since), I am looking for as much torque as possible for the street, what I have and want to use is the following as this is a tight budget project.
11.5:1 dome MP pistons Edelbrock Performer RPM intake Stealth Alu head (440 source) Harland Sharp Roller rockers Hooker headers 1 7/8"
I would like to run a hyd cam (non roller) to gain as much torque as possible. Rev probaly at 5500 top.
Any suggestions what cam would work best for this combo ??

As I understand the Stealth heads are supposed to have 85cc chamber vol according to 440source.com and I have read somewhere that alu heads consump 1 compression so I would be looking at actual 10.5:1, does this make sense?

That's a rule of thumb... Not sure what you have for pump gas there???(R+M/2) even 10.5 with aluminum heads could be dicey unless proper qunech/squish. I'm a big fan of the Lunati Voodoo cams (well designed with the 904 lifter bores.) I'd look at the 60304

After you finalize your cam selection I'd find what the max dynamic compression ratio is for your intended octane, mill/deck for .040" quench (in every hole)/and for the static CR to get that DCR
