is this too much cam for me
226/234-.555/.575-114
i wanna know whats up with this cam.......... and if i could use this in the bigbird...... a lil info (besides the fact that im stock with just a lid and cutout) i wont be getting headers for a good 6 months, and if i need gears for this cam..... could i get away without having them for a couple of months?
Thanks in advance

Re: is this too much cam for me
its an A R E grind and i was gonna get it because my buddy is selling it i just figured for $100 bucks i couldnt go wrong.......as far as what i want.... a somewhat choppy idle WOULDNT bother me, as far as powerband is concerned.... i WASNT trying to rev past 6400 (maybe 6600) to get everything out the thing, i was thinking that it being on a 114 lobe that it would help my idle?? am i wrong...... so is the concensus that this would be to much for a car i drive once a week.... maybe twice, that i would take to the track once in a blue moon??
