What if any quench in that engine combustion chamber? Are you planning on 25-35 thou of cold clearance between the piston and head? That will increase power and reduce detonation . The cam duration can vary the compression pressure from requiring fuel from 87 to 115 octane . Tell you cam grinder what you have as a combo and they will grind to match. |

| A cam that would allow me to run 87 octane fuel would have overlap to the point that it would barely even run at 1500 rpm. If I want max torque at 1500 then I am going to have short duration and very high cylinder pressure. I want to know if I can run something in the 100-105 octane range, 110, or do I need something better like Q16? 87 aint gonna do for this. |

| 110 did just fine at 300psi cranking psi, under full load, at 180 degree temp for 3 minutes on dyno. |

| vp works fine. you was talking about cams there,,,, i dare ya to start with a 450 cam grind. if ur turning 1500 n under rpm, in my experiences, the 450 cam grind did very good in my engine. itll lug clear down to under 1000rpm n still chug out triple digit power. try it as a baseline n work ur way up. |
