.480/230 cam in an 8.5 CR 360?

Maybe not optimal, but millions of builds have been built that way and turn out fine. Not everybody is looking to wring every single bit or power out of one. Some people need to use what they have.

I get that. Just because it’s being done doesn’t mean it’s good.

Is the OP buying a cam or using what he has?

Now I have to go look…
