I don't know about that because can't we buy the parts to build a new, "Cammer", nowadays?
Sure, it would take a buncha cash, but, "Falconer", is out there, right?
And we can buy 5.00" bore center blocks and parts now.
Heck, BM has a one-off SBC block that will install LS- heads...

I've got an Iskenderian 505C cam with 320 degrees of advertised duration; supposedly what Lou used in the digger. It would be loud.

Cadillac 472 and 500 are 5" bore centers.
Is the defect in what I see, or what I'm seeing with ?

Can you guys think about what a modern 534" MEL Super Duty big truck engine would be like if made out of aluminum.
Siamese 5.25" bore spacing and probably upwards to 4.90" cylinders?
Instead of 1100 pounds, try 750 or so??
Put a GOOD designed 385 engine type top-end on her for starters...
Can you say, "a modern Shotgun?"... Or "Cammer"!!!
Keep the stroke short so the big mutha will rpm with the best of them!
Like a 4.9" b x 3.9" s = 588" Z-28 type engine....
He, He!!
