just want some reassurance on combo choices

13 different EFI Hydraulic Roller Cams for 262- 400 Ci Small Block Chevy Gen 1 engines 1955-1987- 2001 Gen 2 Vortech 350.

My personal Experience a 400 Small Block Chevy Hits Street Race Power pretty close to a Pontiac 455.
Need some cam Duration To Pull Hard to 5700 -6000, 6200 , 6500 RPMs.

Crower Listed I like hit hard 5800 -6200.
Going to narrow down this way for all.
To simulate all cams by all manufacturers I don't have time for.

20- 30 different profiles I can do.
Its actually never been done online before that I know.
So it will be a 1st here on Grumpys by me.
 
Ok The Crower List is done.
Cam specs looked up at .050" and recorded each.

Moved onto Iskenderien Cams.
Believe it or Not the Isky RR 272/282 Hydraulic Roller is back for another Round Again.
My Latest ISKY Paperback catalog shows its EFI Compatible.
112 degree Lobe separation spread.
Will Make Runs in .050" this time.

Just Funny. :cool:
 
I agree, but you and I know we aren't going to be able to achieve the same flow characteristics with the non cathedral type ls heads. If I wanted to go go LS then sure, I would. I could make that a goal. The fact here is a want a long block that can be dual purpose so to say. Something I can put the pro Flo on, something I can stick an aed or pro system carb and run it either way. I have the pro Flo 3 in hand, I have a Holley single plane, I have an Edelbrock air gap. There is no reason the 272 isky you love wouldn't fit the bill for all three of those setups. Rockers Crower may be pushing it vacuum wise, but I honestly think it would work if I was willing to tune and use a gapless ring, the Straub cam will make the vacuum cut. No need to reinvent our choices, I think we had several good candidates. Still waiting for the 272 isky Dyno sheet with the @.050 numbers. Apples to apples. Show us that and let's see what happens to that stick with the correct timing events vs the others. The data was skewed with the advertised specs. That's a fact. But in all fairness and for my education purposes let's see the SAME data, on all those grinds. I'm not hell bent on stivkist with one induction system. I could careless. If the pro flow works, that'd be fantastic. If it doesn't I will put it back on my shelf for another build this winter and throw a nice carb on it all call it a day. No big deal to me. I will use it at some point. I'm not trying to milden this build to suit an EFI system. Yeah it'd be nice to have and use, but it's not a deal breaker for me.

Tomorrow Night Engine simulations again.

Get some rest and try not to run anyone over, I'm on call all night. Have been for 4 out of the last 6 days and nights. I'm running on fumes. Just not the good leaded gas fumes.

Next will switch to dual plane all else the same.
 
Damn impressed with the little isky. That guy just flat out works. Freaking torque band. Nice. I like that guy more and more
This is Ed Iskenderiens Own Cam design.
They call him the Cam Father for a Reason.

His Son Ron I have talked to on the phone several times.
Ordered direct for my own.

Both are way ahead.
