8 3/4 gears

Well I had to laugh because you can't just tune way too much duration into good Street characteristics for low RPM driving. It may be worth again I'll say it a call to Ken at Oregon camp grinding and see what he says as well. It'll be free and that way you'll have some contrasting or maybe some similar advice. He will give you what you want not try to maximize horsepower at a high RPM at the track...
There's always a compromise between Street drivability and all out track horsepower...

I beg to differ, it's all about the complete build. We had a 340 (yes a stock stroke 340) on the street with a 267 @.050 cam, 11.5 compression, ported iron x heads and a tunnel ram with 750s, idled at 1000-1100 and was very streetable. He also had the appropriate 4.56 gears to make it drive the way it should. You are giving advice based off your experience with one car that obviously wasn't fully optimized but coming across as if you have years of experience with multiple successful builds.

To the op Ken at Oregon cam is a smart man but I suspect he won't be around too much longer since he sold the place a while ago, Jim at racer Brown is also a smart man and if you give him the right input you will get the right cam.
