[Half-Inch Stud]

Comments;
My Iron heads are ported. I'm done with the 455 rpm way before the heads are "done".
Been a goal to run the 1/4 mile with least engine RPM at end: low 12s is good, 11's are probably there next time with 5,000-5100 rpm. low 1.7s 60-foots are good enough for 3850 Lb, and 1.6s is my practical limit.

Haven't run a small cam, nor properly sized cam since the mid-80s.
The 236/244 cam (below) pulls very well at 1700 rpm, has a classic PMD lope, and exhaust note.

This THREAD has a goal to find/specify a Roller grind with slow ramps, and reduced exhaust lift, to crack the valve open before cracking the #2 Lifter bore. Lifter Bore friendly & Valvespring friendly.

Is "Cam Profile Intensity" is a marketing term for lobe ramps (High Intensity = dished Flat HYD lifters, busted Roller Lifter bores, and Vasco springs.)

I fear small cams for ping at pull away.
