How much smaller? Are you really saying you have no idea what your comp is?
It should still be an excellent driver with anywhere from 4 to 12 degrees of retarding but you need to try it to find out.
Here's a very interesting engine with a generic 204/214 @ 0.050 112 cam that runs 6.99's in the 1/8th.
Randy331:"On a very cam limited engine, I saw more power on the dyno every time the cam was retarded from 101*, back to 109*.
I retarded the cam more latter, and the et went down. On the last change back to 116* icl, the car ran it's best ET/MPH with that engine. I think on that engine, with less than optimum intake duration, IVC was the predominant factor in the improvement. Improving VE by closing the intake valve latter, more than offset any negitives that occured with the other changes in valve events."
