are you being sarcastic or seriouse? (not saying that in a smart *** way) Its really not that big of a cam, its very similar to the cam going into my car, 224/232 .560/.576 on a 110, it should lope but its not THAT big, mines going on a 350 with stock heads with minor port work done to them.

ditto. just make sure you get the +.050 locks from comp, part number 614 or something, just not the 613. Should be a nice cam, wish I could have gotten a 110 LSA instead of a 114...
