HOW DOES THIS CAM SOUND FOR A YOUNG LAD WHO TRAVELS 20,000 A YEAR AS A DAILY DRIVER. ALSO WHAT PROBLEMS MAY I RUN INTO, THE CAM IS THE LAST THING LEFT TO PURCHASE

problems.....you want to build a race car and drive it 20000 miles a year...that seems to be a problem. invest in a 1000 dollar car and drive the shit out it. im not gonna say you cant, and that people dont do what you want to do. i would just advise against it. and btw the cam sounds good.

I would definitely keep the fuel injection for that many miles. Hopefully you can get that converter to lock up or you will get about 6 miles per gallon.
