I think somthings wrong. You should be making alot more power than that!
Expert racers that ride these say that yer setup should make over 200 hp and
over or around 280 torque. Somthings wrong. According to factory 292 stock
makes 265 torque and 150 hp. Somthing not right!

I mentioned this as well a few posts back. I spoke with an inliner named Walt Pearce. He has a 250 that he drag races out in Washington State. From what I could gather from people who know him, he is "the man," when it comes to 250-292 race engines. He is also the guy responsible for making the new harmonic balancers for these motors. Anyway, he told me that the biggest mistake guys are making is when they put lumps in the head they don't use a big enough cam. He said most guys just put in the Clifford cam and think they will be good to go.

However, what people are missing is that the Clifford cams are only designed for a standard head and their intakes, not for the additional flow that the lumps provide. Furthermore Walt went on to say that when you add lumps you not only need more cam, but then you must also have more carb. Apparently the Holley 390 is fine for just a standard say Clifford or Offy intake.

Walt also told me that with lumps a 650 minimum on the carb but ideally you should be running a dual carb setup. This is because both the Clifford and Offy intakes have an inherent flaw. That is because of their design they do not flow the fuel supply evenly to all the cylinders. It seems as if the middle cylinders run lean on these sixes. Just some food for thought.

I'll post the specs of my cam later when I get home. dont have lump ports either. if feels like it has power, hmmm....
