That's where you went wrong. You supply all the booze, the dance comes to you ! Fact. LOL.

3500 10" converter for me, and I blew my share of rear ends and obviously ujoints.

My car wouldn't make it over the speed bumps, being lowered and having headers and 8 quart oil pan, so the principle actually gave me my own spot on the lawn before the 1st speed bump.

1 also had a 9 passenger station wagon the girls liked because of all the room to party and you know what !

Yeh, I'm just old enough that the police didn't give us much chit if they thought 'we where good kids.' Hah !

Good combo

I wish you would have told me this before I spent all that money on new motors!!

So a thought. I can always have the cams regrind to better suit my application since nothing seems to be readily available. Any recipe I should follow that would work around 560 lift.

Re grind will lessen the depth of the hardness. Call Bullet, Crane, Comp, Lunati, they can make anything you want. The cost isn't outrageous. Just a suggestion

SB

IMHO your spring pressures are too low for anything but that factory cam. Most BBC hyd roller cam springs using an aftermarket cam will have minimum 140lbs on the seat. Many will use around 160lbs seat. Yours has, from your words, 110lbs seat.

Delta cams is recommending regrind to 228/228 .554/.554 lift on 114 lsa. How does that sound for my application. Also since the cam is billet is it still a hardened surface

GPM

I doubt it's worth the effort, I was told even with billet there's a hardness depth on the lobes. I could be wrong.
