The cam i was talking about was a soild flat tappit 310/320 advertised 560/580 lift with 108 LSA.
Not any problem with the hot cam or the much tamer 427/435hp cam.
The center carb is a small 350cfm, end carbs 500 cfm vacuum operated. Just think of it like it has the front mechanicly operated barrels of 700 holley four barrel but two sets of vacuum secondaires instead of just one. In my opinion its a great street manifold.
I had mine along time ago when they could be bought for the $125.00 i paid for mine.

IMOE trips work fine with a wide range of combinations, and aren't really that much more difficult to set up properly than any other carb system. Jet, PV and adjust the primary, correctly hook up the 2nd linkages, install the weakest 2nd diaphragm springs which won't bog at WOT under load, and enjoy. Downside is one in good shape will cost $$$.
