I would have to go back and find the specs, but they did cut the CR, and they stated a 'mild' cam. I was very disappointed also.

They stated 9.3:1 compression, exactly the same as what I'm shooting for.
Noticed they used RaceTec dished pistons with a full round dish, kind of surprised me to see that considering the 23cc dished set I got from RaceTec have a D-shaped dish which I would think is the preferred design. |

Thanks B-Man Need to find Part 6.
I believe the cam was a comp hr264-212/218 @ 050. Not all dyno tests are designed to make max. HP. This test was to verify the customer recieved what he requested, and the engine ran well with no leaks.My involvement was on the order of "Hey Ken, we have a tripower coming in.Come on down in case we need a little help." The customer owned an identical car in the '60s and wanted to replicate it. He has other hot rods in his collection but wanted a smooth runner for this one. Car has PS PB AC. The customer is currently having Jaime build a Kaase top end 460 ford.

It's a shame, given the mild state of build, that the Mopar was even mentioned.

Not to discredit anybodys build in my previous post.Every build has specific goals. When you start lowering compression and taking cam duration away it makes a huge difference, especially compression. It is unbelievable what a point of compression will do.!
