Small Block Intake

its a flat tappet cam, all matched,, cam lifters, springs... Ignition it set up.. 38 degrees total on premium, orange box, it runs strong up to around 4800 and seems to lose its pull after that...
I’m going to call “foul” here.
First off...... it’s a BBC, not a SBM.

Secondly, that test is an RPM vs an RPM A/G.

The OP is asking about going from a std Performer to a Performer RPM.

On the right build, the difference in power between those two on a SBM could be pretty sizable.
The question is....... how much different will it be with the OP’s combo?

I wouldn’t expect too much.

We had a low CR 360 on the dyno here last year(not built by us).
SM heads that were checked out, rpm intake, headers, 750 Ede carb, XE268 cam, PRW 1.5 rockers.
Peak hp of 331@5200.

It was surprisingly low.
The intake and 750 didn’t work any magic with that one.
i would like to be at around 300-350 Hp.. I'm just asking if my performer which is suppose to be a small port intake will hold up or would it be worth the money and effort to go with the bigger port( i assume) RPM or RPM Air gap?

cam specs are
Duration @ 50 213/226
Lift .480/.516
lobe separation 109 degrees
