I'll have to check the clearance after I advance it. I'm not sure. I'll run it the way it is, and then when I feel like I need more power I'll fiddle around with the cam timing.

My cam has no advance ground into it. Says right on the cam card. The intake centerline is 105. When I degreed my cam it came out at 105.25, so I left it alone. Do you guys think I should advance the...

And I did degree the cam, it came out at 105.25, it's supposed to be at 105. When I put the cam in I wasn't aware of how much a chain would stretch. So does that mean the engine is going to be a...

That looks good to me. Thanks for doing that again Kitz. Think that will put a '69 El Camino into the 11's with decent traction? I'm with Pat, I think I will be happy with 450HP, maybe with a dyno...

What is the advance on the 488hp? What do you mean with some work?

Does anybody else wanna try to desktop dyno this combo? It just doesn't seem right that the peak torque would happen at 2500 RPM. My cam doesn't even start making power until 2500.

And with 514...

Yeah when I ordered the kit from Summit they took a little longer than usual. Wasn't a month, but was about a week. Was missing the allen screws for the alternator pulley cap.

Well, maybe I'm...

Ya, I was thinking about running 1.8's on the exhaust to see if it might help power. But I want to run this cam for now. If I really wanted to, I could have ported the exhaust a little more after I...

This was one of my first port jobs, the exhaust didn't turn out quite as well as I'd hoped for but I did it without a flowbench. This flowtest was taken at GrommRacingHeads.

It is a solid lifter cam. Isky high rev series on a 108 LCA.

Doesn't sound right. Considering the head flow and the cam, it should make peak power at about 6000-6300rpm's. That dyno shows it topping out at 5000. Anybody with a desktop dyno professional that...

Ok, just put the engine in my car, it's going in my '69 El Camino with a Muncie M-20 4speed and 3.90 gears.

Here it is...
