Years ago Lee Atkinson changed from a Ultradyne 231/239 at .050"/ 108 LSA hyd flat tappet cam to a Ultradyne solid flat tappet cam with 247/247 at .050"/ 108 LSA and he picked up about 2-tenths and 4 mph ( best of 11.27 at 199.61 mph, I think ).

I know its not apples-to-apples but note the amount of increase in inatke duration. It was a street car and he commented his driveability not not suffer with the change.

I'm a one finger typist.... darn thing seems to be swelling a lot these days

119.6 mph

Thanks for the heads up.

Cliff I believe my notes are correct on the 108 LSA for both cams. He worked with Bullet on the cam, they like many others have found a narrow lobe separation can work well in a Pontiac. Dispite the horror stories that permeate our community in doing so. Harold used to use quite a bit of Ultradyne lobes with a 108 lobe separition but not typicaly in a flat tappet lobe, and the others were generaly on cams with more duration. Example, the old Ultradyne catalog suggests solid flat tappet cams from 255 and up were ground with a 108 lobe separation.

Related, Both Chris Mays at Comp and John Partridge at Bullet have both suggested a 108 lobe separation on my cams before. And they seemed to have worked quite well.
