    so what kinda milage and performance do you get out of that cam?

    There are 2 cams that I've been looking at.

    1 is: Upper low-end to mid-range torque and power. Daily performer, mild bracket.

    RPM Range: 1200-6200
    Advertised Duration: 280/287
    Duration @ .050: 242/251
    Lift: .502/.502
    Lobe Center: 110c
    The other is about .484/.484" lift, but I can't remember the duration.

    Would the above cam (.502/.502") be a big step down from my cam at:

    Intended for hot street/strip applications. 3000+ stall or manual a must.

    RPM Range: 2500-6500
    Advertised Duration: 285/285
    Duration @ .050: 242/242
    Lift: .567/.567
    I'm having a bit of a problem finding solid roller camshafts with lower duration and less than .500" lift.
