    Well to start I've seen cams much worst then that one, and it's wasn't all that bad. If you were to stop at a light the guy in the honda next to you would think twice about messing with you so it does have a lope to it.

    Call kris at Comp Cams 1-800-999-0853 he is one of the best in the business and can tell you everything you need to know, he can even tell you what stall and gear ratio would be good to use.
    Make sure you ask for him!

    This cam is kinda pricey Summit as it for about 250.00 and I've never seen it on ebay.

    If this isn't a daily driver you won't have a problem at all, if you plan on using it every day you'll need to tinker with it from time to time but that's why we play with these toys.

    Back to the original post, with out a stall of 2800 or greater I'm not so sure about the DP, all that fuel without being able to rev might stall the motor.
    Total timing of 32 to 36 is a good place to start and then play with it from there.
    Change ONE thing at a time that way you know if what you did helped or hurt you.


    As alway just my 02

    Cam

    Damn Chris at comp cams designed my cam and its quite a bit bigger than that, and mine is on a 112 lc which takes away upstairs but runner velocity is higher at lower rpms, I am giving up 85 Ci but my heads are equil, I hope when I finally get mine on a dyno, it pulls to 7000 because that is where I go through the traps at anyway,

    HYD ROLLERS

    There is a simple solution for that, I am a advocate of big spring pressure! the more the better! I had a 90 5.0 and went through the traps in the 7000 range with a hyd roller and a motorsport rpm extender!

    the Heads was set up for what i am running could go up to 680 lift the valves and springs when i orderd the heads was redone By AFR under cut stems cost alot more then the $1399.00 but its worth it to handle the Rpm with Hyd roller

    set up

    Just dont confuse a springs ability to take high lift, with its spring pressure rating, the two facts couldnt be farther appart
    Sounds like you have what you need.
