My son and I are building a 91 360 with the Hughes 1928 cam. Going into a 71 Valiant 4 door with 727 trans and 8 3/4 axle with 3.91 suregrip for street and strip once in a while.
219/228 duration at .050"
.522/.558" lift
Sweet spot RPM 1400-5200
However, I recommend using Rhoades lifters. They bleed down at idle taking out 15° duration and .025" lift, and they gradually "Pump-up" by 3500 RPM to give the full lift and duration of your cam. You get more low end and mid range torque and power without sacrificing top end. They also make it idle smoother. I had a .484/284 cam in a 340 that barely idled at 1100 rpm with stock lifters, installed Rhaodes lifters and got it idling much smoother at 800 rpm. You will need Rhoades part number 1068 for the stock replacement hydraulic roller lifter for that year engine.
Caution: When you order the cam, make sure that they send you the PROPER cam. They make 2 versions of the cam, one for mechanical fuel pump (with the nose for the fuel pump eccentric), or one for electric fuel pump (without the nose).
Hughes decided (amongst themselves) to send me the camshaft without the nose for the mechanical fuel pump (at the same price as the one with it), and then send me a "conversion kit" to adapt it to work with a mechanical fuel pump (for an additional $30) because "they didn't have the proper one in stock". What an underdesigned POS! I had to do some of my own improvements to help it, and I'm still not 100% comfortable with it. It has been a big headache. INSIST on getting the proper cam or you will send it back (I should have - 20/20 hindsight...).
