FAT Performance FC442. .465lift 290deg duration. Much more sportee.
I'd allow lots of slop in choosing between cams - valve train geometry and setup makes a huge difference in realized lift, IIRC, depending how I did it, I'd get a .050" variance. I'd be real surprised if anyone gets full advertised lift out of most cams - if so it just goes to show that comparative claims at least should be taken with a grain of salt. I would view computer simulations based on those numbers as fun but rough guides as best. I played with every variable and maxed out at .438" IIRC with proper geometry, and was told I did well. It took longer than any other part of the rebuild.
