Various cam spec questions...warning, long post : ) 140-160 1968

"Imagine two identical cars that both make 120 HP. One is stock and makes that power at 6000 rpm; the other is overbored and makes that power at 5500 rpm. The stock one can accelerate hard to 60 mph in second gear, while the overbored one can only accelerate hard to 55 mph in second gear. Which one wins the drag race?"

That's easy, it would be the engine which has the lightest internal components. ;)
