Default I've got a buddy with a 258/258 cam....

I've got a buddy with this Katech TRAC cam, specs are 258 / 258 @ .050, .578 / .578 lift, 110 LSA in a 2000 TA. Right now it's untuned, and he has all your normal boltons, lid, exhaust etc. He says it's stock block "bored" to 6.0L, which I informed him is impossible.. but anyway I'm curious if anyone has this cam or know how it'd run? I think it's a rediculously dumb cam, even with the low lift, especially since it's his DD and he seems to have stock heads and intake...but who knows, maybe it runs like a raped ape.. Anyone?

link to said cam:

Damn!!! What would be the point of something this big without all the other supported mods? That would be tough to drive on the street!!!
