    well it is great that you guys think i know something i would say i know just somethings . i think real world stuff guys can get more use out of . the theory are getting run over every day by guys pushing . and if they want that they can go any were on the net to find it .i did run very big cams were they said in theory just would not work and did .you can take someone word for it or jump in the deep end and see . there is a price for the learning curve.if your on here and want a engine built by one guy you will have a hard time with that ..your going to get many answers . i would say alot of guys do not need a big cam but there are some hard hitters that will do any thing and will find a way to make it work .it would be great if someone would say hey i never done this BUT i think the theory is good? or someone to say i have done this. i do know. what end of the block to put the cam in. it just did not work for me. a let the guy make up is mind and not to get in the name calling and see the post for what they are. there is alot of people on here that know some stuff.i just do not like to see every beating one another over the head with a bumpy stick. just let the post speak .BUT that is not to say i do not get abit hot when i see a full page of stuff i know just is not right .i try to deal with it the best i can and if it gets to me to much i will just one day stop posting

    This a great cam to run with a double hump head.
    Don't be afraid to push the comp. ratio over 12.5 to 1.
    I would also run a 5,000 stall and a brake.
    I would try a Victor with a 1 inch spacer and flowed 650 carb.
