Depending on what calculator I use, the CR should be between 12.5 to 13.5 :1.
Koffels speed shop told me they used the 590 MP cam in lots of builds with dynos around 570 hp using cast heads and lower compression. He said it should be well into the 600 HP range that I was wanting and LOTS of TQ!
 
You will be above 610hp,the only thing I see holding you back is the 850 holley.These high compression standard stroke motors like 4500 flange 1050 with an adapter under them to a 4150 flange.Thats usually worth a few more hp and some rpm.I really like big compression motors,no sound like an open header high compression big block mopar.
 
Sounds about right to me too

I was actualy thinking of selling the 850, but it has already had work done to it like machining the choke off, jet extensions, plugged rear PV, excel pump cams, etc. I actualy started reading about the E-85 conversion last week. I'm even more interested in going that route with a larger CFM carb. I haven't been able to get the car out for a full throttle blast yet, but the front end jumps up and the car lunges forward HARD at half throttle from a stand still! I need to get the cars chassis up to par for this engine now! Frame ties & CalTracs are in the neer future!
 
When you get the e-85 going I would like to hear your feed back on temps and fuel consumption.We will be doing a forced induction twin turbo or gear driven turbo with e-85 in the future.By the way who's doing the chassis work for ya.

Doing the Chassis work myself. I drew up the "caltrac" copies in auto-cad and took them down to manufacturing at work. I think my dimensions are slightly different than what they used,,,, I wanted an even / equal amount of opposite force applied to the thin spring just in front of the second leaf. Its easy to generate the torque value needed to do this using Inventor.
The frame ties are going to be 2 X 2 1/4 rectangular tubing scarf cut on the end that will fit the rear subframe section and the front end will be butt welded on the sides and a tab left on the bottom to overlap the subframe. I plan on setting the pre-load similar to eveyone elses at a couple flats loaded on the passanger side, and about a 1/8th" gap with me in the car on drivers side. I'll take it from there when tunning at the track.
BTW if anyone is interested, I'll post the PDF drawings from my autocad...
 
You beat me to it,I actually add another front hole for added adjustment.If you don't mind I would like a copy.I always like to look at other people's ideas and maybe find a change in my own setup or another idea to build from.Thanks!

There's some truth to this. My stock stroke motor made 675 on the dyno with a 950 Holly atop an Indy 440-2 intake. Put a 1050 Dominator and flange on it and it went over 700, with no additional tuning.

WOW! How far off was your combo to mine?
