How's my new combination look?

I parted out my topend in my sig, I am going with the brand new afr eliminators 195's. Mini ram, hooker longtubes, and powering all this is a new comp xfi cam at 242/248 duration 284/279 lift 113 lsa. I was just curious if this cam might be too aggressive for what I have. I want 11's NA. Oh ya im ditching the 42's prolly going back with 24's

You should get an award on these boards for fastest mover and shaker. I've seen a handful of your threads, and i'm always amazed by how fast you move.
Excellent!

What's the spec'd powerband on the miniram? I assumed Mini - lower end power. Not well versed in it, obviously.
That cam/heads would be best in the higher RPM range though.

Anything available to you inbetween 24 and 42lb injectors ?

Thanks for the compliment Sonix, I like to get **** done. The mini ram is for top end power, up to 6500-7000k rpm. Thats why I am going with big duration cam and high flow heads. Their are plenty of options of fuel injectors, I just want to go with near stock injectors for this fresh engine, get some dyno pulls and see how much bigger i really need to go.

oh ok. I always thought miniram < superram, etc...
Fair enough. 195cc normally is considered too small, but I think since it's AFR's new eliminators, you're gonna be fine.
It should do the job very well. I'll look forward to seeing you post the new dyno results. Should be up by friday right?
