Finally swapping cams

Yea, thats up in the air and then theres days where it will spec out higher.
I'm at sea level. Pressure is allways good. I think at max I'm 300 ft. in the air at the highest point on the Island.

Mike, how much lift can your X heads handle?
Did you look at a Comp Cams XE HI LIFT series cam?

The guy who sold me the heads had this to say about them:

These springs were recommended by lunati for soild flat-tappets up to .640" lift at 1.650" installed height. I was going to run Mopar's .557" soild cam at first, but changed my mind. I opted for the hydraulic .509" and installed the springs at 1.690" instead of 1.650" to reduce spring pressure on seat and open in order to work with the hydraulic. I don't have spring pressure checking equipment. But, as you can see, I initially set up the springs .040" short of recommended height, so the springs weren't stressed in my application. They still have plenty life in them.

I looked at the high lift cams, but those numbers kinda scared me. ;-)

The heads were milled quite a bit, they're down to 64cc chambers, with the pistons I have (that were 060 down in the hole, from what I remember) I figured the compression was just about 9.5:1. They're supposedly "experimantal super stock heads" that were ported by an old SS racer.

As for talking about a builder, I forgot I pinged Scott Brown a while back, he recommended a 237/242 on a 108 LSA with 525 lift.
