Cubic inches are self explanatory. I honestly don't know Been there, done this 25 times in the last 5 years, and these were the low power engines, all Dyno'd on a Superflow SF902 CRANKSHAFT Dyno. If maximum torque and power along with the biggest area under the curve is the target, then only one LCA will do the job, and it has to be the one the engine wants, not one you or someone else doing your guessing for you arbitrarily decides is the one needed. Camshaft and cylinder heads also play a key role in RPM range. You'll want to include your total displacement, including any additional bore and stroke for the calculation. But having the greatest flowing heads counts for zero if the valves are not opened sufficiently or at the right time in relation to the crankshaft's rotation, and that very important function falls to the camshaft. What determines that Maximum Piston Speed attained between TDC and BDC ? Hey guys, just wanting to expand my knowledge a bit with roller cams. Total RPM range includes both minimum and maximum RPMs. A larger carburetor might make more torque and power on the dyno, but will usually run slower elapsed or lap times if the engine can't accelerate properly from that minimum RPM.
