Ive been runing 48 IDA's on a 289 for a few years. The cam I am using is a solid lifter Flat Tappet. Duration at .050 is 238/248, .536 lift and a lobe center of 107 degrees for intake and 117 degrees for exhaust. I am going to be building another engine soon and will use a cam very similar to this. It seems a little more agressive than many have but it works quite well. Idles at about 900, pulls like crazy 6600-6800, then nozes over. 37 mm chokes currently larger ones may help RPM carry a little further, but the engine is very flexible without and bad spots.
