The above test used a Hydraulic Roller Cam 236/242 @ .050 and a RPM Airgap Manifold

The test below used two flat tappet hydraulic cams, the RPM Airgap Manifold and a Victor Jr.

The results reveal stepping up to the Victor Jr manifold made 17bhp more but lost 15ft/lbs torque, this is seen on most similar type tests.

The cam change of 10 degrees more duration @ .050 made 30bhp (518bhp) more, 
torque was down 20ft/lbs @ 3000rpm and recover at 5000rpm 

Using this data we can expect the motor above making 530bhp to achieve  560bhp plus with a Victor Jr and 240 In. dur. @.050 cam.

Another option to hang on to torque but make the bigger BHP numbers is an EXTRUDE HONED RPM Manifold, expect to pay $650 for one of these manifolds.
