Nice cam; but I wonder if it will work in a 9/1 engine. Using their advertised numbers I get an ICA of 46* which I arbitrarily shrunk to 41 for lash allowance, and the Wallace says;
Static compression ratio of 9.0:1.
Effective stroke is 3.76 inches.
Your dynamic compression ratio is 8.29:1 .
Your dynamic cranking pressure is 169.18 PSI.
V/P (Volume to Pressure Index) is 104
