.648 lift on a stock bottom end

[natedawgg94]

was just scooping through the corral forums and there's a guy with a '95 with stock bottom end using a .648 lift cam just gotta say DAMN that thing has got to sound freaking wicked. anyone know of anyone around here with that much or close to it on a stock bottom end? he is also running tw trach heat heads.:baby:

there is no way

and yall are pissy about my measly .544...

[natedawgg94]

from what everyone else has posted i thought so myself but they say if you do a 4 degree advance and have the lobe separation right it will work. the guy is running it now. they got in a pissing constest bout it pretty interesting what a lot of guys are saying should check it out it is under 94/95.

[jwillburn119]

man i cant find it... i tried and checked like 3 pages... where is it?

If yo notch the stock pistons you can do that. No way to do it otherwise. I've been down that road more than a dozen times. No amount of advance or retard will get the valve off the slug with that much lift (and duration that would go along with that kind of lift).

Well I agree that .648 aint gonna happen on the intake side with a stock piston unless you have real lazy ramps or retard the cam timming alot, This is gonna equal big no on second thought huge turd! Most of the Twisted Wedge V/P interference occurs due to steep ramps and duration above 226* at .050, Also you see very few hydraulic rollers over .600 lift. Most are solid flat tappet and solid roller cams The ramp rates on both of these cams would not allow for the use of a .648 lift with a stock piston, My old 95GT with a set of TFS TW heads and a Comp Cams XE270HR14 218/226 .514/.514 114 only had .070 on the intake but well over .200 on the exhaust(V/P clearance).

This story is kinda similar to those we all have heard about 9 and 10 second daily driven street cars that when we finally see them run cant click off a 13.

personally i'm one of those see it believe it types but still find the thought interesting. one thing when i seen this guys post was he is running a 12.07 1/4 and has 331rwhp with no power adder. i also dont see why anyone would want that much lift on a daily driver anyway.

[streetstang88]

from what i understand and from what muscle mustang and fast fords has said
about .527-.530 . when i had my motor built I talked to Dan Dutton about this also and he agreed ... I had my pistons notched even though i was only running
a b-cam and 1.7 roller rockers (.512) just to be on the safe side and allow for bigger cams in the future if i wanted

and generally lift dosent make it lope ...duration does

[jwillburn119]

duration does make the lope... know that for a fact... but im running .544 .544 on 11:1 pistons... so its better than .530 or .544... i dont know if anyone really knows what max lift is... so long as you tim it right, i havent seen anyone NOT make a cam work, so long as they took their time on it, and i believe that you can make a .500 cam hit if you screw up the timing... so... if you can get that much air in, and you wanna start opening the intake before the spark plug fires... then get on it... its personal preference as far as im concerned... and if he's nailing 12.5 second quarters with a 300 HP car... somethings gotta be working... truth is, we, (as humans) have only been making badass horsepower in small blocks for a couple of years... and there is, im sure, still alot to be learned about what kind of power you can really make with one of these... there is alot of potential... maybe it just hasnt been hit yet

To add to that guys list of BS, he's syss he's got TFS TW heads too. No way will that lift clear with a TFS head and stock piston. NO WAY.
