    Cam will want 10.75:1 SCR, 3000 stall, 10" diameter converter and more gear. 12" converter with the fins bent over will not do it for you. Engineer squish/quench to 0.035" to 0.040" for detonation protection on a load of poor pump gas. Alter by cutting the block decks.
    Be very careful of buying cam and roller tappets separately. I have found that the best plan is to buy the cam and rollers from the same cam grinder. I also like Howards, so here is a kit that is in the same ballpark as what you're looking at......CL120326-08

    Also, the word you were looking for is moot, not mute.
