using a comp cams extreme energy 284 the idea was that the high ramp rates of the XE series cam woudl support the low rpm air velocities normally associated with good cruising/driving street cars and yet still yield enough air flow to operate up to 6400-6600 rpm at the track for some weekend fun.
the idea was also to leave enough vacuumto operate power brakes, which the pulse draw from the larger ports shoudl easily support at low rpm.
it isn't a purely street mannered engine, or a tough to live with "street/strip" motor, more of a compromise to get good power and still be reasonable to live with.

it sounds like it should work just fine -- if i can get all the info i will run it on my shops dyno computor and see i can export a data sheet but it will be a guess -- carb size un lead fuel, intake type single or duel plane no porting or gasket matching , hedder size ( tubes diam ) and runner length --- high or low restrict mufflers , my guess stock oil pan windage chain on cam gears 1.5 ratio rockers no rollers, no top vent tubes or heat blocking under intake ( tray ) , std volumn oil pump ??? 45 / 55 lbs -- stock crank shaft bob weight 16 / 17 hundred grams maybe -- auto trans ?? conv speed and diff gearing -- it might be a day or two before i can do but i will try -- that is if you want an idea about what to expect -- jz
