So blow that up went to the dyno low on gas with cast pistons and 20 pounds :bang: :bang: :bang:so ya lol built another engine this year good 993 heads so got it all in the car little background.

    256*in / 270*ex @.050"?? Flat tappet, hyd roller, or...?

    This has to be a blower, right? And not turbo? What compression & trans? Who the hell picked this grind for a street car?

    I honestly don't think I've ever saw a cam with that much duration & so little lift.
