hughes vs mopar performance

Want a hughes cam, call Tim at Bullet Cams, he grinds them for hughes, IIRC.

Talk to a competent engine builder for a recommendation. I wouldn't buy hardly anything from hughes, except maybe rockers and hold downs. Other than that... Pass...

If it's nothing too crazy, but you are considering a 284/484 which is fairly long on duration at .050, and you are going hyd flat tappet, the lunati voodoo cams are really good pieces. You can usually find a decent grind to fit what you want to do in about any cam company catalog.
Their roller lifters work great no problem (used them in friends ford and he always buzzing the thing to redline and has 35000+ miles on it, never a problem).
