High Compression 390

Why would you go away from a fast ramp cam?
This is what you want. The quicker the valve opens and closes the better and quicker the air and fuel charge rushes in helping to create power.

Look at the heads flow specs. Add 1.6 rockers to change the intake lift from .513 to .547 & the exhaust from .533 to .568. More lift the merry.

I personally like the cam. The wording of “Is there a better cam” is often asked and it comes down to one of two things. Personal taste/reaction (the way it acts in a running driving engine) of the cam being used and/or what the dyno says works best for what it is your doing.

As I said before but also I failed to mention that the cubes are big via the stroker crank which eats duration up a little bit but also, a manual transmission can always step up in cam size by one step.

The above cam IMO is what I would do for “A fun truck.” What intake & carb are to be used?
