Stroker specific cams?
Personally with Trick Flows I think I’d be going a bit larger than 232 @ .050”! If you’re going to use power brakes why not have a think about running a vacuum pump! At the end of the day it’s not about whether your engines a stroker or not, it’s all about cubic inches, head flow - resultant RPM and dynamic compression. When I was in the valve train industry some years back we generally calced Int duration for more serious engines based on head flow RPM potential at the given cubes and calced the exh duration based on exh flow percentage of the intake. Ramp speed / stability, lifter diameter and lobe separation were of course all important factors too.
Accepting that there’ll be plenty of good / better, more up to date recommendations but just for fun my recommendation would be a nice stable mechanical street type steel roller cam with an iron gear, approx 242/250 degrees @ .050, .550” int / .575” exh with 1.5 rockers on 110 or maybe even 108 lobe separation. Dial it in so the seat timing @ .004” lift sees the intake close at around 70 degrees ABDC for a DCR of about 7.9:1
Glad to hear your going with the Pro Flo 4 it’s what I’m using on my stroker build as well!
