Need cam ideas for my 318 Duster

-
I'm well aware of the hydraulic lifter pandemic and that's why I want a flat tappet mechanical setup. I assume their not the same since they are just a fraction of all lifters and are hopefully not made in China.
Roller cam is not an option since I don't have the funds. On top of that it seems like the bad manufacturing/ quality control pandemic is spreading to rollers too. Lots of reports of failing roller lifters on the net.
Having an engine built on the other side is not really on my budget. There are good engine builders here in Sweden too but, again, it's out of my budget.
Sorry. I missed the place where you said you were planning to use a solid lifter cam.
 
I picked a Lunati 10200701 HFT for my 318 because it has **** compression, pistons 0.080 in the hole, untouched 675 heads. I wish I had gone with the 10200702.
You may want to try the 10200703.
@72bluNblu ran a 10200704, he has written about it, check what he's said on the subject.

I am not seeing these cams on the Lunati site anymore.
Edelbrock bought them out.
Lunati is gone.

Sounds like you got the makings of a good combo, probably could use more stall, just don't go too crazy with the cam (220-230 ish) all should be fine.
 
Huh, did some digging... Looks like Lunati has been part of Elelbrock/Comp, for awhile. Just recently they nixed a whole bunch of Mopar related products from their store.
Sad, sad, sad.
Lunati Recognized As Edelbrock Group's Sixth Power Brand - Edelbrock Group

Tried looking up camshafts for LA or Magnum blocks... Nothing, I then tried Mopar in general.
This is all of it:

Sad :(
 
Hmm, not what I wanted to hear lol. Well, I do actually have a complete used nitrous system that I've never used...

Getting enough CP is the challenge. I know. 63cc is what they say, but I haven't measured them so can't say for sure.
Wallace calculator doesn't fully agree with yours, or do I miss something? With this:

HUG STL3842AS-8​

Hughes cam I get 186.8 PSI with 9.6:1. Or I'm I lost in the math?
Hughes Engines


I have started to lower them already. And thinking of adding that nitrous system LOL.
Nitrous....cheap horsepower
