What I have been able to do is study the hell out of VE and spark tables from a variety of engines similar to what I’m putting together. I’m most familiar with F body LT1s. With a 218/224 - .528/.535 cam in 185cc aluminum heads I’m not too far away from an LT4’s flow characteristics. I’m a tiny bit bigger on cam, tiny bit smaller on heads (heard LT4s were 190cc heads, maybe not accurate). My goal is to put together a better 2nd attempt on the VE tables and take a stab at the spark tables in the bin and upload that in a couple of days. Scrutiny of more experienced guys would be welcomed.
