sounds like a good street mild performance one, but whats the centerline ?


Nope, not a mild performance cam at all. To run right in a 440 it will want 10:1 compression, 3000 stall and 3.91 gears.  :yesnod:

In a low compression 400 it would be an absolute Dog  :icon_smile_blackeye:


Not much going for it....slow, lazy old school grind. Lots of overlap & seat timing (dirty idle > difficult to tune) and modest lift. It would behave basicly like an MP 292 and make less power.


* based on the overlap and intake valve closing point i would guess it's a 108 LSA grind.  :scratchchin:

As Ron says it's ground on a 108 LSA & more than likely installed on a 104 ICL.
