If I understand it correctly...that wasn't a big cam. 234 range.
Although...forced induction.
Isnt the size of a cam more depended on the lift not really the duration of the intake/exhaust? That being said I think it would be a PITA to drive some of the ~600+ Lift cams. With the Hot Cam at low speeds witht he air on my car wants to die, I wouldnt like to try that with a 600 lift cam.

It all effects the lope.
Lope is overlap basicly...
Basicly what I was aiming to say....even the smaller cams can lope something fierce.
My 248/254 cam doesn't sound like much when my exhaust is capped.

Other way around. Lift has nothing to do with idle characteristics.

Do you have a pair of SHITTY "budget" heads? "Toss a FAST intake on, IT WILL MAKE IT ALL BETTER!"
Do you have a terrible head/cam setup? "Just throw a FAST intake in the mix, IT WILL FIX EVERYTHING!"

Im not talking about idle, Im just saying I thought higher the lift the bigger the cam is. And higher the lift the harder it is to drive every where except the track.

its a solid roller cam something in the 270s duration with .7xx lift on a 108 lsa. some time ago i actually found hte specs but dont quite remember them. motor is a 408 with ported ls6 heads. thru his auto he made around 580rwhp. i think they were shifting it around 8100 car was built 4 or 5 yrs ago

Lift has nothing to do with it. It is all on duration and lsa. Again overlap comes into play with these figures.
