I once ran a .509 cam in a Cuda with a 383 at a measured 10.6:1, and once I figured out it needed like 17deg initial but low 30's total it ran like a scalded hog (except below 3k, tight converter). After 30 years I am putting together a 440 for my '69 Dart GT, shooting for 11:1 with .035" quench and big valves with pocket work and deep matching. I want to run the same cam again because it works so well with stock rockers and iron heads. I am assuming the added ci's will tame it a little, but I loved the rasty idle and don't have power brakes anyway.
Question, has anyone run this cam in a 440 and how hard did it run?
