Blair's 531 hp 390 with tweaks

[70bosscat]

Say you were to duplicate this build with the only changes being 50 more cubes, 15 more degrees duration @.050 and .060 more lift. What rpm do you think it would make peak power and torque and how much would it be?

Don’t have build in front of me, but it’d likely peak around 400-500rpm higher with that much more cam even with the added cubes.  Caveat being that the induction wasn’t a restriction.

I don't have a 531hp Blair 390 either but I found this dyno from Blair:
Torq 504 at 4000
Powr 517 at 6000

Here is what the Gonkulator got (with a water pump)
Torq 505 at 4300
Powr 506 at 5800

Now add 15 degrees & .060" to the cam so 240 248 .570 .570 up to 255 263 .630 .630
Torq 501 at 4600   -4
Powr 532 at 6100 +26

Now 4.25 stroker to add 50cid
Torq 560 at 4500 +59
Powr 541 at 5900  +9

That would be my guess.
This build had iron 428cj heads so probably running out of air.

There was a TFS headed 462ci that Larry posted awhile back, 246* hydraulic roller peaked at 6200rpm, Blair posted an Edelbrock headed 471ci(?) that had 5800rpm peak with a 248* hydro roller.
