Slant six builders...Lets talk Cams

i would go over to slant6.org - as indicative of the site name, those guys and gals over there live and breathe slants. I've found a guy going by DusterIdiot to be most helpful as he knows his stuff.

As to your build, how much has the blocked been decked? Based on all your measurements, what is your expected compression/dynamic compression ratio? That will play a big part on cam specs. As to buying a cam/lifters, why not send your cam to Oregon Cam; they will re grind your seasoned cam to any of their listed or custom grinds. They can also reface your lifters or new are available. Unless your block is really decked a lot (100 thou or more) and in conjunction with your head cut, stock pushrods should work just fine.

I am building a pretty stout hydraulic lifter motor as I pretty much had everything to give it a try and it will be a bit different.
