If that were true, this thread would be ordinary.
Even Tony claims it's not. He couldn't even do it himself.
AFR 205s have made over 500 rwhp on a 346 many times, even 4 years ago...that in itself is not breaking news.
This thread is new because it's now been done with a 22x cam. Which IS worthy of congrats. But it's not because of the cam.

I too have a 346 with AFR 205s and a 224°/230° Comp XFI cam with YT rockers, UD, fairly light clutch, FAST 78 & other supporting bolt-ons... I am a little hesitant to post my dyno numbers because I still think they are a little high, even though they match on two different dynocom dynos. My results were 471 rwhp and 467 rwhp, tested within 2 months of each other. I couldn't be more pleased with a set of heads. Very nice daily driver manners, and a lot of fun at WOT.
edit - forgot to mention, my stock short block has 179,800 miles on it.

Great numbers for sure. You can't go wrong when you start with a set of 205's and go from there. Tony worked with me on my combo after I trashed my stock bottom end. Using what we had along with a forged 403 I ended up with an absolute beast with manners. It looks like the same results were obtained here. Congrats again.

Not to steal your thread but is a 220/220 112 be considered a small cam for a set of CNCed 243's ?
I have not bought the cam yet. I run 1.8 gold cranes
