Since I have a tall deck block, it was suggested that I use connecting rods with a 6.460 length, so I will be using Callies Ultra XD I beam rods.

Flat Top Diamond Pistons
Stroke: 4.125
Rod Length: 6.460
Comp. Height: 1.230
Block Deck Height: 9.750
Piston to Deck: +.003
Cylinder Bore Length: 6.300
Comp. Ratio: 10.8:1
Chamber Volume CC: 68.2
Estimated Horse Power: 650-700

Here is the info on the custom grind from Comp Cams:

Greg,

The cam profile is interesting, and they are doing what you asked them to do. The combination of 12° duration split the 115° lobe center work together to build a broad powerband.

I don't recall running as high as 12° duration split before. 10° ... yes .... but not 12°. I think the engine will have throttle control like a rheostat ... which is good ... smooth & linear as opposed to "peaky."

Would you share with us how it runs after you get it all together?
