Default anybody have an idle clip of an ASA cam

I am thinking about changing to an ASA. I like the comp that I have now but I think I may want something with a little less lift. Don't have to worry about the valve springs so much.

You shouldn't have to worry about the valve springs, your lift is rather low to start.

Isn't your lift in the 0.570 area, or close to it?

FYI the ASA cam has .525" lift intake and exhaust. It is the Grand Am Cup cam that has .570+" lift.

The ASA cam has lazy lobes, your better off keeping what you have. I assume that your running comp 918 springs with the cam that your running? Also what is the specs on the cam that your running now(what size and lobes) You might actually lose power. From what i understand the ASA is kind of a pain to tune. I have no experence with this cam so it is just hear say from me
