I like that approach relatively over headed under cam. Makes for streetable engines
That's why the new Hemis and LS engine do so well. And even look at stock 340 there over headed for factory hp goal that's why cam and headers do so much for these engines.

Everyone always seem worried to kill velocity with too much head but willing to kill driveablity with too much cam. Especially with most people's gear choices.

The only problem with that approach is you know in the back of your head 50 plus hp is only a cam change away :)

Keep up the good work and appreciate the sharing of the results.

It is ONE of the many reasons the G3 Hemi and LS work so well. The LS heads are 15 deg really well developed ports and the G3 ports are straight up! Couple that with VVT, EFI, MDS, active intakes and well you just have a fantastic engine. It is also why you stick a cam and long tubes on them and pick up 60-80HP. I intentionally pulled way back on the cam in order to ensure a personality that would suit most end users. They want to go racing? Cam and single plane up and watch the power climb the RPM scale in lock step. J.Rob
