So I took my cam in to have it checked. Machine shop said way to much for the street. Whih sucks cause its like a 400 dollar cam. And its a solid roller and the ship says to go witg a flat tappet so I can save a bunch of money. .

Not a matter of saving money. You don't have a roller block. Laughing

Sell it and buy something that matches your heads and intake better.

Why would increasing fuel pressure give you more power, unless you're running incredibly lean now?

I think Al has much more conservative cam in his 383, probably takes alot less RPM to get moving too.

What's the lobe separation angle?

It could be relatively mild, or it could be incredibly lopey. Depends on your LSA and Compression Ratio/Heads/Intake

I dont know the lsa. The guy at delta just wrote those numbers down. I will have to call them the heads are the pri topline srt. 1.94/1.50 with 167 cc intake runner and 67 cc combustion chambers. I was gonna use a performer rpm intake. I had a guy rebuild me a qjet that he set up like the old school ones edlebrock used to make that he said shoukd work well

Ya. Ill call tommorow. They were closed when I picked it up tonigt. One giy was waiting for me to get there. Computers were down. So was cash. 70 bucks. and carb guy was tellinh me that eldlebrock did some qjt carbs back in tje day? Maybe? and said is is a pretty good setup? Idk. He has like 300 carbs in his shop. Looked like he knew his stuff

I guess from what I have been reading he is setting it up lije the qjets thay edlebrock did. From what I have read they were supposed to be decent performance carns. So hopefully it will be. It will be less then 100 bucks whixh inclufes the carb so it is still a decent deal.
