[82CAM]

Jim, I got a Comp Magnum solid Race cam. It is a small base circle for clearance on the 5.7' rods, the stock 400 rod is shorter at 5.625 if I'm recalling it correct. Lift is .534 with 1.5 rockers But I got the Harland Sharp 1.65 rockers so that is what gives me .589 lift. Duration is 250 on both intake and exhaust with a 110 lobe separation, it was also setup 4 degress advanced. The pushrods were +.100 long, heavy duty 3/8 .080 wall thickness they didn't have that nipple shape on the end that can be a weak point. The valvetrain is not noisy at all you can barely hear it and it stays adjusted the Harlands come with a good set of polylocks. I adjust them every once in a while just for the sake of going over them. It started out as a street strip car but it's more strip than street every once in a whlle i'll take it for a spin but for the most part it's a trailer queen now. If you get the Darts you'll have to have them drilled for steam holes on the 400 motor. No big deal cost $30 at the machine shop I was working with. Good Luck with the project!
