I have pretty much narrowed my cam choices down to these two:
The cam for the SP383
Duration at 050 inch Lift: 222 int./230 exh.
Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.509 int./0.528 exh.
Lobe Separation (degrees): 112
And the Comp cams XR276
Duration at 050 inch Lift: 224 int./230 exh.
Valve Lift with Factory Rocker Arm Ratio: 0.502 int./0.510 exh.
Lobe Separation (degrees): 110
Is my interpretation correct that the 110 degree lobe separation of the Comp Cam XR276 will bring the power band in just a bit lower in the RPM range than the 112 degree SP383 cam if everything else was the same?
I can put my hands on a pretty fresh XR276 for a great price and I'd have to buy the SP383 cam new. Either way not a big deal, but every penny helps.
