Stroker specific cams?
I'm with you YR
I usually spec a cam starting with the intake closed point with some logic similar to our long winded poster
However on this EFI build (I have only stock Mopar, Ford and chevy experience and Hilborns) I would start with the amount of overlap required/ allowed
which is also vaccuum
Then figure Intake Open and Ex closed points and move them around some and see what happens keeping the target overlap max (intake and ex considerations)
Once I get a good grip on those then work backward from the Intake open to the Intake closed point and see how big a seat timing I can come up with
ditto on the exhaust, opening as late as possible
Then try lobes that fit to get the most area under the curve on the intake- most flow during the last half of the intake stroke as possible- given heads, ex, etc
I'm going to end up with a shorter cam with more lift and if I have big lobes I'm going to end up with the LCA spread to hold the overlap down
at least that's what I think I will come up with
good camgrinders have already gone through this drill
Note this drill is almost opposite of a THUMPER design where you let the overlap float to a high number to get a big lobe with a reasonable intake closed point (or IMHO unreasonable)
