I have no problem trying his ideas out, he's been doing this a LONG time. I also have no problem putting in a milder cam next winter if I must.

If it were anything other than a '72 Chevelle, we'd say the Stage 2 would be the best match for that converter. BUT....it IS a '72 Chevelle with a 6.0 and only driving on the weekend. That leads us to think you want something with a lot of character. We have two Stage 3's. The standard valve clearance one, and the one that gives a little extra. Of the two, we think that milling the heads .015 and going with the SUM-8710 will bring compression up a bit and give the car what it deserves.
