Just out of curiosity, which UD Hydraulic roller would compare performance wise with the famous solid lifter (non roller)UD 288/296?

what I have now is the UD hyd roller 288/296 234 242@.050 .600 .600 on a 110 LSA
how many degrees more would I have to go to be comparable to the performance of the solid lifter (non roller) 288/296 cam?

Anyone? How many more degrees will it take to get me to go even better than I am now. To compare to that famous cam? (288/296 solid)
Don’t get me wrong the car will do upper 11s but you always wonder what will give you more. Wish I would have went bigger first time. Here is the specs (new this year)
60 over 427
215 oval ports (219/188)&ported
JE forged pistons 10.25-1 cr
UD hyd roller 288/296 234-242 .600 .600 on a 110 lsa Matching springs
CC roller lifters
Crane roller rockers
Cloyes hex adjust timing set
Performer RPM intake 1/2 four hole spacer
750 DP holley k&N air filter
Holley fuel pump
Mallory IGN
Dynomax headers
3''exhaust with flowmasters
Turbo 350 - 3000 b&m stall
410 12 bolt posi
3750 pounds with driver
Could someone please give me a HP Guess, or a Desk top dyno on my combo? Thank you.

bb427,

You would need a 296/302HR with 244/250 at .050 to come close to the 288/296F10 at .200. The 308HR that I have, with 255 at .050 and .650 valve lift, is a much bigger cam, with 175° at .200, 9° more than the 288/296F10's intake.
The 296/302HR would not be an identical swap, but close. It would have a little less bottom-end, and as much or more top-end. I doubt if it will really turn 7500, though.
