I have an friend who has a 64 Buick special. He is a bit of a mad scientist ;) The car has a turbocharged 350 Buick with about 8 to 1 compression,forged pistons, pocket ported heads.stage 1 intake,a Holley 750HP,a 2004R trans with about a 2500 stall converter, and 3.73 gears.He has a boost controller and can range the boost from 6 to 14LBS. He guesses the car weighs about 3500 lbs. He figures coil bind to be at about .550 lift. He is looking for a solid lifter cam to compliment the range of boost. He doesnt want to rev over 6000 and would like to see close to, or over, 600 horsepower set on KILL.
Thanks, Tony
 
Here are two possible grinds that were recccommended by Harold Brookshire of Lunati. Any comments?

This will be a custom cam, no doubt.....
I will give you specs for 2, and you guys decide. Is the .550" coil bind including, or not, the .050" minimum before coil bind? Is the max lift allowable .500" NET, or .550" NET?
Here are the 2 grinds:
282/272F14---248/238 @ .050, .536/.517 gross valve lift, .520/.501 net valve lift, 114 LSA, in at 110 ICL.
272/264F14---238/232 @ .050, .517/.501 gross valve lift, .501/.485 net valve lift, 114 LSA, in at 110 ICL.
Obviously, the larger cam will make more power.
The smaller one will make a lot."
