I've got an email in to CompCams for the custom cam grind (218/218 .499/.499 on a 114 lobe separation) and lifters they recommended a couple months ago. I'll sign off on the specs and pay tomorrow. If anyone thinks this will not due my build justice, please speak now.
I assume my stock 250 has cast 5.7" rods? My research indicates they will hold unless I start pushing more than 6500rpm, which I don't see happening.
Thanks for all the help,
Ian
Not sure if you can get a wider lobe center? I would go to a 116, but a 114 will work fine.
Stock rods are forged, it's not a Pontiac 350 V-8. = cast rods
Normally I would turn to 6000-6500 RPMs on stock rods, with the Paxton super charger combo, it would have power up to 7500 RPM's.
Note: My stock rods were side grinded, polished shot peened & checked for cracks. Resized big end & ARP rod bolts installed.
Never blew up a stock Chevy 250 rod, they work pretty good.
