    The sealed power replacement 3x00 cams are solid. That's what you regrind. It's not a blank core.

          i know, but thats like $310, and to buy a cam off your site thats a core, it would be 175 and 83 for delta to grind it $258...im all about saving some cash here. now if yours came with the push rods id gladly pay the $310. its no personal offense, just business.

          how bout $30 off if i get your cam, your grind and your pushrods? it could be a package deal? im barganing here, spent too much time overseas...its worth a shot...

              the H272-2 cam has just over 50 degrees of overlap, mine has just over 70 degrees.

              Mine makes max power at around 6500 but pulls past 7K no problem, I bet it would pull to 8K if the rods would take it. Plus i have yet to find a bin file that has tables that go past 6400 RPM or will datalog past 6375. Above that who knows what's happening.. you'll need alot of porting to get it to breathe at or above 7K RPM. I agree with Ben, shoot for 6500.


              your dyno program is a little off, LOL Try finding the actual head flow sheets for the 3500 and plugging that into Desktop Dyno. When i put in all the numbers for mine i was going past 100% VE and making around 350 HP. That's with a complete ported top end, longtube headers and some other stuff.

                point taken. anychance that it would be cheaper without the need for the cam position sensor? im not using sfi...

                  Its already the cheapest cam for the gen 3 motoros or 3500. The newer cams cost more and its only the notch/tab/half circle cam sensor pickup difference.

                    Delta messed up my grind a little, i wish they had called me before they ground it.

                    what i asked for and what i got showed like 10 HP difference in desktop dyno.. lol

                      my program is crap. its cheap. no way to even input what my intake consitis of. lol its waaaayyyy off cause it lacks serious inputs, and says so in its disclaimer. but it does give some good info...

                      ill be using trueleo headers, granted there not long tubes, theyre close! id call em medium, longer than shorties, shorter than longtubes.

                      porting will be done, no biggie there. im more worried about the cam than anything else. i was under the impression that it would be cheaper than $400! thats a ton of cash for a cam. but in all respects, this is a lot cheaper than the iron head adventure ive been on. and seems more worthy of my time and money. but, damn, another $400?? that will be about $750 i spend on this site alone.... Ben you better enjoy my money, i hate spending it!

                        understood dave...

                        I have to get gaskets, oil, coolant, ecu upgrade and valvetrain all priced up, and prolly have to wait till the 15th to order it all.

                        back on subject, 1280 looks good, hows 1386 look for street ablility? and what about the small block springs?

                          Dynomation with pro tools is down to 650 now That is what I use to simulate the engine. Its helped me figure out my head porting as well so its not too bad, but that is a lot of cams to sell to break even on the software I use to figure them out.

                            I wouldn't want that much spring pressure and you would have to cut the spring pockets .100 to get 1.8 install height. Not safe.

                            I gotta get back on my laptop and plug that cam in. I will have more time tomorrow at the machine shop to play with hybrid cam specs (mix and match and change ICL and LSA).

                              that 1386 is quite a cam... Desktop dyno shows it making 306 HP @ 7500 RPM (with all my other specs still in there).

                              That's a bit much, If you want driveability back away from that.. slowly


                              We put the 1617 cam in a P&P'd 3400 a while back.. It idled really mean un-tuned. With those specs in i'm showing max power at 6500 RPM, 316 HP and 302lbs/TQ @ 4500. That's about 50 degrees of overlap, should sound very similar to the H272. Plus your LS6 springs will handle that perfectly.


                              remember, roller cams are around double the cost of flat tappet cams. you get what you pay for with Ben's grinds.

                                Ok, as far as I can tell (1000 RPM WOT), the 1386 should pull more similar vacuum to the 1280. 109 ICL and 114 LSA looks like a sweet spot for idle quality with more power from 5000-6500 compared to the 106 ICL 110 LSA. Its comparable to the 1280 in regards to efficiency at 1000 rpm and manifold pressure in dynomation.
