For those who feel that our cam of choice is a bit too aggressive for a street/strip motor, we installed a smaller off-the-shelf Comp solid roller (PN: 34-713-9) in the name of research. The 260/268-at-0.050 stick features 0.726/0.726-inch lift and is ground on a 108-degree LSA. Obviously, idle quality was noticeably smoother, however, output didn't drop as much as expected, peaking at 728 hp and 679 lb-ft. In addition to the extra 6 lb-ft over the larger cam, the off-the-shelf grind produced an astounding 600 lb-ft at just 3,900 rpm. Those factors could make it a better alternative for a heavy car, and allow for improved streetability and a tighter converter. View Related Article
