looking at the cam that was used in the program and what you guys are discussing, it sounds as if the cam used in the program is not correct.

if someone wants to post the cam specs you guys are discussing i'll put them in and see what happens, but it will not probably change the numbers much, just the rpm at where they happen.

optimizing the current setup, centerlines at 104/100 for a lsa of 102, dur. 248/242, gross valve lift .706/.670. that is a pretty agressive solid lifter and don't know if it could be done, looks like roller territory.

549 tq @ 5000/566 hp @ 6000,

aggressive solid roller--248/248 .722/.722 lsa 102

556 tq @ 5000/574 hp @ 6000

with this roller cam and typical street single plane intake

566 tq @ 5000/603 hp @ 6000

the two above examples are with 10" of idle vacuum, all examples are with production water pump only, normal windage, and production design pistons and bearings.
