Lunati Voodoo 10230700 253/258 208/213 .454/.454 LSA 112 ICL 108

Great info here.

This is the kind of thread we need to finally put the "318 cams- one or two steps up from stock" issue to rest.
 
I consider 6* @.050 more duration a step up. less than, 1/2 a step. The difference is small when dyno tester. Very small.
 
Not exact, but similar here. I run the Lunati 10230702 cam in a pretty much stock 400 with bolt on's in my 74 Charger. It has Edelbrock E-Street heads (75cc), Edelbrock Performer intake, Holley 4160 carb and Davis Unified street/strip distributor. Rear axle is Eaton Truetac with 3.55 gears. Rest is pretty much stock, include HP exhaust manifolds. Edelbrock said my stock compression was around 8.1 and the 75cc aluminum heads bring this to between 9.1 and 9.5. Lunati said 702 works well with stock manifolds and no upgraded torque convertor but I should not no any higher (703, 704, etc) on a daily street driven car. Keep in mind, this was based on the configuration I gave them on my specific car.
UPDATE: Forgot to add mine also has power steering and brakes. AC compressor on there also but no lines on it.

I think that is a good recommendation and I myself would not attempt a larger cam without modifications to the engine and drivetrain.

On small blocks (which I’m more familiar with) the max size cam duration @.050 I’d do with a stock converter is 218 @.050 which is pushing it on the smaller displacement engines. It’s OK in the 340 & a bit better in the 360..... I also would not go any lower numerically than 3.23/3.21 w/a stock or made er tire, it just drags the whole package down....FWIW....

I think you will like the combo.
Small big block with an upgraded cam and etc... 3.55’s....
as you describe will be a very enjoyable street machine.
 
looks like lazerwolf is about the same except for the gears
which is why I did not include the 262-268
yes hard to see one size change but easy to see two
and easy to go one size bigger when one size smaller usually works better
(especially if I don't want to hear about it like forever)

btw I owned a 73 B Body 3 seat SW with a 400
great comments- keep em cooming

3 seats was your clue
IT was actually a C body wagon with a B Body front end-
Put cop car t bars and sway bars and hp exhaust
on the back added a leaf and a sway bar from a cordoba
cornered like on rails for a big car
cop wheels
and CHP take off tires
Our CHP does not fix flats so they sell them off at auction- you have to take whatever-
usually around 50
there are run flats and skid flats but most just take a flat fix
you end up with a VR rated tire for about $15
I put them on everything
the 69 Polara 2 door,
even the Pacer Wagon also on Dodge Cop wheels

has a nifty torque curve for a 400
 
F’in funny.... so, again, the “SW” stands for .....
:jackoff::poke:
“Suburban Wagon” would have been super easy to write.
Cool link ya left behind. I like it.
