    You need to catch Donnie Johanson, someone here in SoCal will have his whereabouts. He's got all the specs in his head. Good luck.
     
  4. I have a Howard's M6 for a 331 Caddy would also like to see specs.

    Good to see you post. How is that 39 doing? I don't get on the Barn much anymore; my project doesn't fit.

    Is anyone running a current Howard in a flat head? They have some pretty impressive numbers on there site.
     
  9. Not exactly sure what that means? There are a gazillion different cam grinds - to fit so many different engine and performance situations, so to say that somebody "ran a Howard" - doesn't mean a heck of a lot.
