Richard,

Thanks for your post. When I ran my 440 Mopar 20 years ago, it would miss when it was overreved. I interpreted this as "valve float", i.e. the hydralic lifters couldn't pump up fast enough for the engine speed. Maybe that wasn't a correct conclusion.

Rick,

The camshaft is a "Crane 270" with Crane valvesprings and Comp Cams roller rockers. I don't have anymore information than that since I bought the car used and that was on the build sheet. It's probably correct as other parts of the build sheet were honest. I have timing set to 12 degrees advanced and the distributor is set to advance to full at aroung 2800 rpm.
