Any fabo members up in Seattle or near by ?

I was reading your posts and I have a couple of questions. One is why the the flat tappet cam? I roller cam will make more manifold vacuum for street use and more power. The other question I have yet to see any motor with over 11 to 1 scr that doesn't ping on the street. It will run on premium, but it will beat itself to death under load. As far as cam advancement anything more than 4 degrees will start to cause other issues. I have been building stroker Mopar engines for over 20 years and have seen a lot of issues that were caused and what had to be done to correct them. Now if you are going to just race it the combination looks decent, but you are leaving some on the table with a flat tappet cam.
As far as Woodburn I have been attending for over 25 years every year. I do not do car shows, but I do race my 68 Dart every chance I get with a 340, with mufflers, DOT rear tire at 10:30's 128 mph and it is still street legal. But with 13.5 scr and 114 fuel I do not drive around on the street much.
hi Ken, so I chose a solid flat tappet cam & edm lifters for my budget.
Basically my decision was based on reading alot. I reached out for king county based mopar guys now because I don't have any mopar friends or people to possibly get advice from. There's a couple guys I know but I don't think they've ever done stroker big blocks. Anyways I talked over my build with Eric @ howards cams
& this was his suggestion after giving him my details & did tell me that this cam would work great with the compression. But got conflicting info from Hughes engines. They also sell the same cam but he said I should be at 12.5:1 & 93 would be fine. So there's where my confusion is. Now my block hasn't been machined yet & if it is @9.980 & flat it will be .002 below but I'm assuming ill atleast have to have that .002 milled so it will be atleast .000, I have the .039 felpro head gaskets suggested by trick flow & yet to cc the chambers on them, theyre advertised @ 78 but...? The radiator is aluminum 4 core, basically everything but the short block is aluminum. The lowest scr with my components is 11.29, I can go up or down with gaskets I guess.
