Re: Help Me Build My Beast...

easier to stomach but i would agree that if you built a 900hp NA engine, and then put a turbo or blower on it, you could drop the lift alot to get to the same 900hp mark. but why not keep the big lobes, and make more power besides, as the xtream energy cams have proven, the lift is irrelevent to power, its the cam profile. with a roller cam, you can run very aggressive lobes with optimized area "under the curve" thats where the power comes in.
