have someone have this xe295hl in your la360 ?

 

Thats alot of cam.... Whats your set up?

 

yeaaaa, that cam is HUGE. i hope you have real hot heads. haha, hot heads.

 

my set up..ported rpm heads, rpm airgap, holley 750 wacuum, 10.7 cr, headers

 

It doesn't sound very street-friendly. Unless you have a very "loose" convertor, and some high gears. I say this 'cause I "over-cammed" a motor once. No fun around town, terrible part-throttle performance under 3500 rpm, un-tuneable at idle.

 

Your CR is good and your Eddies if ported correctly should feed it. Its a pro street cam or bracket class.

Your usable rpm will be above 6500 rpm. The Eddie springs wont work. You will need a hefty triple to handle the pressures. Forged rotating assemble and keep the bob weight down.

This strickly a 1/4 mile ride?

 

here we have street/drag race, so this is a car for weekend fun..

 

I can tell you from personal experience that 230/236 XE series cam cut with valve lift in the .56 area with an Eddy head will net 450HP right around 5900 rpm. Nothing radical here. Nice torque curve too. Idled decent and could be street driven, but not a daily driver IMO. It needed a single plane and a lg header.. but very responsive motor..

Going up from there will yield a slight power increase and higher peaks but you lose bottom and lower mid range and your curve area of power is shifted with no net average gain.

If you need more power AND want that street use, redo the bottom end and throw some nitrous at it.

 

i go for 100 hp nitroz and hope i dont blow my engine out..all to be a winner at summer weekend, but for this summer night i race with my lunati 60404 cam and rpm intake..next winter i step upp with my xe295hl and a singel plane, 2 cams ,buy i when i import the car and all the stuff..so i have much of things to build a real "killer"..just the parts to built my engine cost me 9000$, my gears is 3.91 and i going to buy a 3500rpm converter here ower..it's not cheap things, aubout 1500$..10 inch..just to buy..
