That's certainly nothing crazy. I'm running a bit more lift on my cam and still have the stock 3.42's in the rear - now that's a crazy ride around town. That setup should run real well.

I must be blind. I can't see the pics. I just bought a short block from LME, Brian seems to be a real nice guy. We can't figure out what cam to run though. That sort of scares me....
