Opinions? What do you spin the motor up to with this cam? How lopey is the idle?

I had their old profile R1 (232/237, .560"/.560", 114 LSA) in my '98 T/A 382 stroker. It picked up 17 peak RWHP over the 221/221, .558"/.558", 116 LSA that I originally went with. The car was an auto, and I had it idling around 925 RPM or so. It thumped pretty well. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I believe their revised R1 is a 232/236 with XE lobes. It's a nice 382 stroker cam IMO, but I'd put it on a 112 LSA. <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" /> I was shifting at 6,800 RPM.
