Nice street strip combo. More strip with the 292 Purple cam though. I did this combo long ago as well.
I also wasn't to thrilled with the 292 as a street able cam. Excellent otherwise. But thats the grind!
7200 rpm with that cam? Way, way past it operating band.
What was that 270/276 cam?
Sure, but it's not a dragcar, but rather a streeter.It was a one gear deal. 3.55s take it to 60@ 6800 with 28s, and it wasn't worth it to me to pull the stick. The power peak was at about 5200IIRC, so shifting at say 5600, the Rs fall to 4000, then climb to 4880@ 60, so that was a bust. I just let her buck! But even if I stretched it out to 6000, the Rs drop to 4300, and still climb back to the same 4880@60. I just let her buck..... It was never about winning; The tires are spinning the whole way. There's no way to tell in first gear when to shift, all my gauges are lying.I always liked the jaw-drop when they heard that banshee wail.
7000/7200 sounds incredibly awesome, screaming thru dual full-length 3 inch cannons.
The little 270 was a Hughes HE2430AL, now disco'ed. 223/230 @.050 I ran it with 1.6 arms for .538/.549 advertised
Current cam is Hughes next bigger, the HE3037AL, 230/
