THATS what Im saying by mild.... Again.. "MY definition of mild means the camshaft is not beating the **** out of the valves/seats/springs etc etc."

so physically mild? i mean the term obviously gets thrown aroun in different ways a LOT.

also id like to add... when you have a 440 or 454 a larger cam will get absorbed by the extra ci.

That cam is MILD compared to the 284/308 with .525 lobe lift that I run in the Nova

It's a matter of perspective. Call it what you want, mild is relative to the person who last uses the term.

I was young and stupid once, and I was pretty wild. Now I am older, not quite as stupid, and have gotten sorta mild.

That cam isn't all that big for a 440.
