Thank you, Flash. That is exactly the sort of answer I was looking for. I have heard that it is better for the longevity of the valvetrain to let the cam do the work, instead of compensating with higher ratio rockers. That sounds like a nice engine you have put together. 600+ pounds of torque is no joke.
I was also thinking that using the 4" crank, would slide my power band to the left. I might even use a truck cam in it for the initial build. I'm looking for a relatively tame, yet torquey, motor that I don't need to rev the piss out of.
