assuming the cam has 4 degrees advanced making it a 106 degree icl the events at .050" would be.

ivo = 6btdc
ivc = 38abdc
evo = 51bbdc
evc = 3atdc

overlap @ .050" = 9*

Your assumptions are correct.

The idle is exactly what i asked for a very deep lope, sounds a lot like other bigger cams at idle. As far as throttle response, it is dead on, very little cam surge and this is only very low in the RPM's. Driveability is pretty much the same (other then the added fuel consumption and power) as a stock cam car, if need be i can shift at 2K RPM's, this is only if i want to keep the car quiet and I usually shift at about 2400-2500. No real track times yet, i've clocked off a 8.31 but this was when the track was 100*'s outisde and it was really only a shake down run with a 2.1 60' and short shifting at about 6000 RPM's, if i can cut a 1.8 60' on my 10 bolt and really run the car pretty hard im sure its easily a mid 7 second car, top end on my car is about 6500, thats where i shift for best results. No dyno results yet either, also that time is on a shitty mail order tune, old 1.52 roller tip rockers that were torqued down too tight, and it burning oil from about 8 or 9 busted valve stem seals, also i have a slight miss up top but i think thats my opti, i still haven't fixed that. But since i went with comp 915 springs, full roller 1.6 rockers, and fixed my valve stem seals ive definitely picked up some power
