what's the idle set at on that vid? sounds like my car crusing down the highway

the cam has alot of duration...that's what makes it so big. it will take alot of tuning to get it to run reasonable on the street.

i would think it'd put down good numbers, but be VERY choked by stock heads.

would make for a sweet cam on a 370 block with some nice heads

That is the same exact specs as our Z1 camshaft and it works on a stock cube motor with stock heads.

to much duration @.050, everything else looks fine. The motor would like more SCR, heads and intake to take full benefit from that kind of profile.
