I now changed the cam file (thanks to fauxrs) and the flow file that I found on the internet for the heads. Looks real close and not much out of line.. Don't ya think? (I have been using the same file name and just updating it)

The numbers look about right, although the peak HP looks like it occurs below 5000 rpm (kinda hard to tell in a chart) which isnt indicative of an L-82. I dont know why torque is so high. Is there such a thing as gross and net torque? I suppose so..

I think you have a very good starting point for comparisons though. :cheers:

That's what I said, TNT... in 78, the L-48 had 8.2:1 CR and 1.94/1.50. The L-82 was 9:1 w/ 2.02/1.60(like I stated).

And agree w/ Fauxrs, the duration did look very off on the L-82 cam. Fauxrs- how does your car do smogwise with the cam you run?

-Steve
the Car smogs well although it has teetered on the edge of failing due to burning oil past valve guides, the only major issue with the engine right now. - you can see the results of my last two smog checks here http://earchitect.50megs.com/corvette/ofpower.html#smog

>>I'm stupid! How do you do a screen capture?

f you are on a PC, it's been built in for about 20 years...use the "print screen" key (prtsc/sysrq). In the old days, under DOS it would send the screen contents to the system printer. Under Windows, PrtSc will capture the entire screen to the clipboard and you can paste the contents into anything that handles graphics (even Word or WordPad) using the menu commands or by pressing <control> V. If you want to grab a smaller area, use <alt>PrtSc which will capture just the active window.
