440 what am I missing here?

After reviewing the cam options and reading some of the reviews I’ve been finding there’s an awkward gap in hydraulic roller cams in this range. Some indeed say the comp 274 is undersized in a 440. But most of the 280 grinds respond well to over 3000 stall in light cars with stroker cranks.
But use this cam regardless of your converter. It’s suggested to use a 2500 rpm converter but it will make more than adequate torque in a 448 inch 440. It’s actually .520/.530 lift in the Howards catalog on a 112 LSA for decent vacuum and a 108 ICL. It listed as having good low to mid rpm torque with a 2000-6000 rpm range. Intake closing is 69 degrees ABDC and cranking compression will be 152 PSI.
