272° @ 0.050" is some pretty serious stuff with over 1/2" lift. Effectively Larger than my Ruster cam.

Cool Stuff.

I am guessing it's a flat tappett, not a roller Lobe/ Lifter, correct?

I've got a couple Mike cams that are over .600" net.

I am not certain that the lift is the biggest player.

It of course helps but I think the lobe profile/rate and lobe timing to the position of the piston in the cylinder have a large impact on things too.

Mine in the car now is 270 degree @ .050 and .570 lift. Most lift above .500 is just a "valve spring test" :D :D

I thought you were not going to build another street engine.
