Default Re: L88 cam in L78?

With all due respect for Waynes car, the cam is is running is a made up cam. We really don't know much about it. If he had a GM L88 cam in it, it would peek around 6800 rpm or more with his manifolds. I shift a 7000 rpm and go through the end at around 7200 with my lesser manifolds. If I shift at a lesser rpm, the car slows down a lot. His lobe separation and ramp speeds must be quite different than a GM L88 shaft. He has obviously done his homework, but it would be real interesting to see what the car does with the GM shaft!
