I really need help ..
As I said, you need to know the static compression ratio of the motor before you can intelligently choose a cam for it. Did the machine shop guy cc the chambers? Can you get a photo of the piston crowns and post it here? Not trying to bust your chops here, just want to teach you how to do it correctly so that you can teach others.
