Thanks much.
Jason
The driveability of the cam will depend on your tune alot. But with an above average tune its not a problem at all.

WOW great to see all this feedback on this topic i started....well i finally picked the cam up this weekend from my friends house..(the guy with the ceta)...and i cant wait to slap this bad boy in 
....i am just wondering if i should order some new pushrods or use my stockers 
....i am leaning towards buying some other pushrods...any suggestuions on which ones to go with....my buddy has HP TUNERS so the same day i put the cam in...we will tune it with his laptop....man with all your guys good feedback i am really glad that i bought the cam and springs from my buddy....i paid $575 for the cam with 4000 mileson it and some .600 lift comp cam springs with the locks and retainers....do you all think it was a good price?
