This thing will have great torque and works good in a 9.5:1 engine, We used this in a 327 in a 1966 Chevelle. With this cam you would have to buy Crane Cams Hydraulic Lifters, Part # 99277-16 With that being said I assume you want a hydraulic flat tappet? So with a little better understand of lobe center and intake center line for you above, I would use a Crane Saturday Night Special or a Crane Hydraulic listed below (In my opinion, these cams should carry about 12-14' of vacuum which is plenty for 99% of applications, if you want a choppy sound and killer performance for what it is)Ĭrane Hydraulic Camshaft, Part # 110551 (Cam only) With a 110 lobe center for example, you advance it 4° so the intake center line is 106°, With a 106° lobe center with ZERO advance, the intake center line is 106°, now advance it 4° and the intake center line is at 102° for even more bottom to mid range torqueĭo not be scared of a 106° to 108° lobe center when properly spec'd With that being said I would use a 106° lobe center, Think about it for a minute. I have a 222/230 108° lobe center in a 355 with Dart 180cc Iron Eagle's and it pulls 17' of vacuum at idle.
