bermblaster,

If you plan on driving that thing on the street, you are going to hate it. Your cam specs, duration @ .050 and LSA, if correct (the 104 is nuts), would be in the range of your typical circle track cam with a power band in the 4000 rpm to 7500 rpm range. The cam specs don't make sense for your combination and your motor would perform so much better with a cam that was properly matched.

It's interesting, if you look at hound dog's post and his desk top figures, shows the difference between the two cams with the Lunati cam having much more realistic figures, although you would probably see a bit higher hp number from the Lunati. And that's a Hyd roller. No big deal.

I'm just saying it like it is. You may want to talk to some other engine builders and get opinions from guys that drive these things, have actual seat time experience, and have a clue about cam specs.

Good luck with your project,
John
