cam rpm range on stroker

Disagree but will agree that when the two are put together the results can be spectacular!

Heads, stock to ported allow the cam, based on how well the heads breath, the rpm, room, ceiling and the broader and higher power curves. The more we’ll ported the head, the broader the curve could be.

Could be?

Yes! “Could be!”
Because the cam is the other half.

?The popular 285 cam?
LMAO!!!!
WTF is that?
Never heard of one. Is that like the old, no longer made 3/4 cam?

What I mean by popular 285 cam. For most building a street strip engine is gonna probably pick around 285 degree. Its a good compromise between street and race. In almost all cam lines. No matter 4 cyl, /6, 273 to 440.

My create is a 288 cam.

2nd what i was trying to say about heads being the main factor in an engines ability.

If you took stock heads of a 273/318 or 1.88 340/360 or 2.02 x or eq or eddy or w2 or w5 or w7,8,9 or the new trick etc.. or ported version of any of those and put them on a 10:1 340 short block with say a xe285hl cam the powerbands and the hp numbers are gonna be vastly different.

Yes its all about the cam head combo but the heads have a staring role cam only has a supportive role.
