Default Can someonr run the numbers for me? (decktopdyno)

A while back DDcart offered and ran the numbers on my setup. Now I am looking to change the cam, again. and would like to see what the gain could be.
355cc
Holley 650cfm
Edelbrock Performer intake (matched to head ports)
Edelbrock RPM heads (2.02, 1.6)
2" stock exhaust with H-pipe
Crane Cam H-278-2 cam (.529 intake, .535 ex, lobe sep 114, )

Thanks

Is that a powermax cam? I got .467/.494 for the lift off crane's site while looking for the cam timing numbers.

*edit* Also, stock mufflers? What compression?

Maybe he missed the R in HR.... seems like a lot of lift for a hydraulic flat tappet. He must mean hydraulic Roller.

I can't run the numbers for you but I'm sure somebody will. Just wanted to say that between your heads & cam you have alot of flow potential & should make very good power. However, your 2" exhaust system will be a definite flow restriction & you should achieve a nice gain by going up to 2 1/2"- and much more if you're willing to run headers :cheers:

Headers and nice exhaust are worth 40 hp according to the dyno tests I "guesstimated".

306 hp @ 5000 rpm, 358 lb-ft@3500. That's using the "stock manifolds and mufflers" setting for exhaust.

When I switch to high performance manifolds and mufflers, I get: 323 hp @ 5000 rpm, 371 lb-ft @ 3500.

Headers(yeah, I'm bad) give: 364 hp @ 5500 rpm, 402 lb-ft @ 4000 rpm. "Just something to keep in mind. :D"


Check #7, http://www.cranecams.com/master/apps/chevy6.htm
