Reply to "CAM"

The lobe posted above is closer to the typical 290° on the exhaust side, if you leave the 114° LSA and the Lobe Centerlines the same, you would have 0.5°more overlap.

Also the hydraulic intensity is the same, so the only thing that can be said against this lobe is the lift. With a 1,73 rocker arm you would get .615 lift, which exceeds the .600. I lack experience if that lift is too much for a hydraulic flat tappet cam in 4V Cleveland but the Hydraulic Roller Cam George specified has .611 Lift on the exhaust side.

I am with George on the Intake side however. With the big port you don't need the long 290° intake duration. With it comes more overlap and worse "low end manners".
