The cam was a Isky 270 mega with 221 221 /470” on a 110.
It sounded great was a thrill on the highway above 30 mph, especially after I opened the scoop, but could have used more gear or Al least 9.2 comp.

If your cam will be in a similar 400 with less 3.23 gears then I would do so only with Rhoads lifters to buy back some bottom end.
is this cam less rowdy than a 041? compression will be 10.24 edelbrock d ports. not ported. 3.08 gear with a 6 speed 3.01 first gear factory intake. 750 cfm carb. 1 3/4 headers. car weighs 3800 pounds. power brakes ,power steering.
