Ok, I know I've been down this road again about changing out my cam in my 72 lemans convertible. Many suggested the Crower 90916 cam, which In fact I bought, I did not install it yet because after running some Dyno 2000 simulations comparing it to my current cam the Crane 272H, the 60916 seem to lose some low end and mid range horseppower and torque but gains in the upper rpm range. I'm thinking my car would actually be slower with the 60916 cam. I don't have a higher stall and only 3:23 rear, which I don't want to change out.

Here is my current setup again. I'm thinking a Hydraulic Roller would be the best choice.


400 +0.030
TRW pistions
Stock Rods with arp bolts
Stock crank with studs for the mains
72CC E-heads ported and polished. Overkill I know.
Edelbrock RPM instake
Holley 750DP carb
Crane roller rockers 1.65
Crane 272H cam currently in car
Heddman Hustler headers with 2.5”, flowmaster mufflers
CR is 10.2. Runs fine 93 octane pump gasoline
TH400 with shift kit.
3:23 10 bolt safe-t-track rearend


The car runs a 13.6@102MPH with street tire and a 2.1-2.2 60' time.

Any suggestions for a cam upgrade to provide some additional power?

Thanks!
