Cylinder Head CCs and Compression
The big cam builds MORE cylinder pressure as RPMs increase, making the detonation worse at higher rpms!
That's true;
This can happen when an engines exceeds a V.E. of 1.0,
I think that would be a tough, or expensive, thing to do in a streeter . That would take a serious engine... or one with a lotta cubes; or maybe a too-small cam.I think that would be very hard to do with an alloy-headed street SBM, at legal speeds.

I sorta tried, with a Mopar 292/292/108 cam at 11.3 Scr, but failed. It ran on 87E10, and 34* of Power Timing, with a 750DP; and 3.55s/A833 .. I'm having a hard time imagining to run a bigger cam on the street.
The smallest I ran, in same 11.3 engine, was a 270/276/110 cam. That was a torque-beast. It too ran on 87E10 at 34/32 Power-Timing. But I didn't run it long like that; just a couple of months. By next spring, she was down at 10.7.. So Ima thinking, a street 367 doesn't have enough cubes. I was a lot younger 20 years ago,lol.
