Planning for 408 - Possible Solid Flat Tappet cams

Requested a custom grind from Howards cams. I got a reply back with an off the shelf grind from them. 254/260 duration @ 0.050, .550/.555 lift, 108 LSA. Wow that's a pretty big cam for a street car. I thought I was pretty clear that this isn't a race car.


No way does it need a 6 degree spilt. That's nuts. I'd look at 250ish on both sides, use a 1.6 rocker for the extra lift and get it ground on a 106.
