What v8 flathead cam as (King on streets) ?

I read your post about the 1007B and it concerned me so I did some checking and the 400jr is dead on. At least the two we had in the shop. If someone would apply today's cam technology to a flathead cam, there's no telling how much more power could be found. At least 10%.... 15hp.

I have a love/HATE relationship with flatheads. I love them when they belong to someone else, you know the rest...
