Quick question regarding the HR 242/248 XFI lobes on a 113 LSA. What are thoughts on the minimum compression required - using 310 cfm d-port heads?

Let’s assume manual brakes or hydroboost.

The rear has the 66 Chevelle code:

3875745N with date code H215

But it has 4 wheel disc brakes so I assume it picks up about 1/2” from the rotors.

Rear Tire Size and Wheel BS

My newly acquired 66 Lemans has a 12 bolt rear, supposedly from a 66 Chevelle. Does anyone know the maximum BS one can use with this rear and tire size if using a 15” wheel?

SD Performance Old Faithful

I see SD no longer has the OF1 cam in the on-line catalog. Is one able to order an original OF through any vendor using a OF1 cam card? What parameters not on the cam card are needed for ordering?
