Cam HP capability

Curious on the result of the calculator... when did the hp peak? What was the torque like?

OK, this is for the Magnum 282S

(a minor adjustment to the exhaust flow data which i entered wrongly, )

DP, 1.94 valve, my heads, 10:1

CAMQUEST:

447.6HP @ 5500

471.6 ftlbs @ 4500

Be aware - Camquest won't allow a stroked 318/390 - so Im using the 360 data file. It will allow my headflow data though.....

DYNO 2000 (allows 318/390 data, my heads , DP intake)

386 HP @5500
424 lbs @4000

But if I go SP intake it says .....

409 @ 5500
433 @4500

So it likes the plenum volume.....

I couldn't test your cam - no valve events:-D

Funny thing is - the CamQ chart "recommends" good fits, and it says the
Comp XS268S is the best fit...so that verifies what you say about the split pattern being a good deal!

Then it says Magnum 282S

The XS282s is under the "drag" category -

which is what I had planned to go to....if the M282S got a negative report....

CQ claims 464.6 @ 6000
464 ftlbs at 4500

D2000 claims

410HP @5500
440 ftlbs @ 4500

ATM Im leaning towards a SP intake and the M282S and 1.6 rockers for a baseline, do you reckon I'll fall a long way short of the 400HP?
