Cory...if you have a dial indicator and a degree
wheel, you can get a ballpark number for lift and duration, then if you have
the brand, check out their website for specs close to the ones you
determine.

Speaking of 440 cams
Hey guys, when I bought my 440 for my Polara, the
old guy I got it from said he re ringed it and put a cam in it. I
asked him what size but he couldn't remember. Saying only that "it was
a step or two above the factory cam." My question is this. Is
there a way to determine what size cam it is without tearing the engine
apart? I'm trying to match an intake to my car but don't have a clue
what size cam is in my 440.
A quick
break down of my car. 65 Polara 3.23 gears 245/60/R15 tires up front
255/60/R15's on the back. Custom built 727 tranny with a shift kit,
factory torque converter. And the 440 with new rings and don't know
what cam. I`m guessing that with the way bigger than factory tires my
gear ratio is more like a 2.97 ratio. The factory tires I think were
195/75/R14's. Oh and I'm running an Edelbrock
750 AFB. One thing I did notice after changing tires and rims is
my car lost a little off the line. Again I think that's do to the
bigger tires.
