I would love to read input from you Moparites regarding what would be the ultimate choice for a street/strip camshaft for the most horsepower/torque with factory unmolested iron heads and still retain a very reasonable level of streetablity with a 440. I currently have installed a 284/484 Mopar Performance PurpleShaft and have utilized it to the max as my E.T's of mid 7 second 1/8 mile time slips will confirm. My 440 has a 10.15 compression ratio and will perform and idle just fine with 92 octane gasoline with my current set up and is installed in my 3500 lb fully street legal 10.25 mpg 69 road runner. I am using 915 heads with a Torque Flite with a 9 1/2 inch converter. I know I could gain performance with a roller camshaft and I know some of you have vast knowledge and experience pertaining to this subject. I would appreciate the opportunity to read your experiences and recommendations for a nominal performance gain over the 284/484 PurpleShaft with merely a cam and/or lifter swap with regards to my application! Thanks!
