Yeah, Ima thinking that's going to be messy. That's an awefully small target.And It's gonna take some tinkering. 8/9 sounds about right for an XE285HL. Depends on your idle-timing.

Hey Bob,
looks like we might be running similar combos; I'm at 4.04 bore by 3.58 stroke, pistons up .005. OOTB Eddies and the venerable AG/750DP, but Ima guessing you are running iron heads? What Scr and what octane can you run?
Those 1110s are the cat's meow on my heads.That 367 doesn't know when to quit. I had to buy a rev-limiter, cuz this one time I missed a shift with my foot flat on the floor.I was in the heat of the battle, so have no idea what she reved to. By the time I looked over there, the needle was coming down towards 8000. It wasn't long after that and I installed a rev limiter.And then I fixed that dad-gummed shifter once and for all time. I haven't missed a shift since about 2004/2005.Those 1110s really work.
Oh, I see what you mean, their cams are all different now, and the current springs are all different. Now I'm confused. I think I ran the Edelbrock springs with the 223* cam. And I know for sure I bought new springs for the 230* cam. And I kindof think they were 1110s.In any case, I installed what Dave called for.

My chassis has 125,000 miles that I put on it with two engines. My winter motor was a teener, and it put on 25,000, during the first 4 winters. The rest is all 367 yup,yup,youbet; 100,000MILES on the old girl. I haven't noticed any power loss yet, but hey, we are both 17 years older now than when she first hit the road, in fall of 99.

And ROY;
I'm a big fan of Hughes,too. In '99 they were the only fast-rates out there, and they just seem to be getting faster all the time.My 230*s got a lot of miles on her; maybe 80,000 miles.
