[Dragncar]

Nice, its going to make 650+
I think its more like 12.5-1 or so compression ratio from the number given.
Not wild about the cam, still should run great.
Sweet ride and getting a LS out of a old Pontiac is heroic IMO.

Dragncar here is my setup for compression. The cam is a older grind that I believe made it through a few hands but came from Tim Corcoran who is on this post as well. Was for a Super Stock 455 combination from what I know. The engine did go on the dyno at Len Caverly's shop in Barrington, New Hampshire. Unfortunatley we had to abort mission due to the oil pump had a stuck check ball after one of the pulls. We ran it to 5250 and it made good power at the cross over point 580hp / 530lb ft. It was climbing quick. Len thinks it should make 650+ but will need to spin to 7K or more.

I don't know if that is a typeo or not. But @ 5250 580 HP is 580 torque.

Do you have a dyno sheet you can post?

Typo, thanks for noticing. 530/530 @ 5250 @ 5600 it was 580hp and thats the highest we ran it up to. We had just finished some break-in time and this was the first hard pull. Then i had a oil pressure drop at idle so we stopped.

580 HP @ 5600 is 544 torque. Was torque still raises when you stopped the pull?

I'd have to try and find the picture i took of the screen. Im pretty sure it peaked pretty close to 5400-5600 RPM. Im just going off memory...
