My 340/420 Stroker Build
Thanks guys.
I have the later Weiand 7545 and thank you for posting that cam info and I do believe I know which member is running that cam.
This car is a streeter and the two solids that I have spec’d so far fall in between 247-250 and 252-254 with final lifts around .580” to .618” after lash and apx geometry loss with my 1.65 rockers.
But I will stay open for suggestions as I have a few more weeks before I order the cam.
Thanks again!
I ran the cam mentioned above( the 260/264) on a 10 to 1 360, and now run the same cam on my 12 to 1 418.
It has proven to make excellent power on both motors. I have also had the wieand excellerator( an old stroker street strip favorite of mine) on the stroker I current run, and on previous engines I have had.
Very good street strip choice of single plane intake.
you are correct, you won’t need to run it more than 6200-6400 rpm with this cam and intake, it will make tons of power not much over 6000 rpm.
I ran my 10.70’s Eddie headed stroker shifting it at 6200, with fairly decently worked heads, and this cam and excellerator with the small Doug’s headers . 3350 pound street strip car.
Personally, and I say this as somebody who has used all these parts( and most of them recently) in a street strip car, with a stroker I absolutely wouldn’t go any smaller on cam than the one I am talking about. Certainly not if you are wanting to make true 500-525 horsepower.
