ok i dug up my test info on my old 502.
-AFR 315 cnc heads
- added the severed duty Tulip valves. AFR milled the heads to get the chambers down from 119cc to 110cc . this kept the compression ratio near stock (9.6:1).
-Comp Cam mechanical roller Grind # c8VI 48768 / 4877B SR112.0
Lobe lift .389 intake/ .393 exhaust / gross valve lift was .661 intake/.668 exhaust/ duration at .050 was 254 intake/ 260 exhaust with a 112 lobe separation/ valve lash .016 for both intake and exhaust
-Comp Cams Endure-X roller lifters, 1.7 ratio aluminum rockers
-Edelbrock Victor JR Air Gap intake with no additional port work or matching
-Holley 950HP carb-stock right out of the box
-Moroso 11-quart pan
anyway the motor made over 700hp on 91 octane through a set of Bassett headers
and spun a race-prepped B-impeller about 5,800 rpm in my boat
the motor was ran hard and afterwards the heads were used on several of my motors. after 4 seasons i checked the valve springs and they were all within 10 pounds of stock. i have no doubts this setup will last awhile in a jet boat or other application.
hope this helps
yep, as useuall i was wrong again, about the carb anyway.lol atleast i was correct on the cam. those numbers match what i have here. i never ran that cam in my set up, but from what i remember in your boat it ran real hard and strong.
thanks for clearifing it all up mike.
