Head flow,vs. cam lift?......

LOL @ Tony!

Moper, your one of the guys here that can cover a lot of area. I'd be hard pressed to argue with you, Tony and a handful of other guys here. I just took the question on from another angle.

For general purpose performance, one needs not go crazy trying to be a scientist figuring out numbers of flow and lift. Getting the most out of it would need a good bit of brain power. Then there's splitting hairs between everything else for what should be and what is and what does perform best. And then how and why it failed to do the expected.
The brain could go Ka-Boom!

If the bomber wants to really nail down some power, then get that cam that rockets the valves up and hangs'em high for a while on some high flow counter parts, in and out, squeeze that mix good and away you go!

While that basic recipe could be a disaster waiting to happen if your so foolish to "throw" parts at the problem, it is the basic idea of how power is made.

The question for the Bomber is, "Where are you going with this and where do you wanna be at builds end?"
