427 cam question?!?
By Josh - 09/06/2002 12:02:23 PM; IP 158.52.254.237
I am building up a standard bore 1965 center-oiler, with medium riser heads, Edelbrock RPM intake, and holley 850.

My builder has a NOS Ford cam but I am affraid that it will not come alive until 4500 RPM. The engine is going in a 3500lb, close ratio 4-speed, with 3.25 rear gears.

The cam specs are:
Ford part #: C4AE-6250-B (solid lift cam)
Intake Duration = 324 degrees
Exhaust Duration = 324 degrees
Lift Lobe = .248
Lift Valve = .500
Overlap = 112 degrees

Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
JC
