You don't say how much you shaved the heads, but without the head shave, the compression ratio would have been 8.4:1 and the 268 cam would be a little much for the motor. It may be a little soggy on the bottom end compared to a little shorter cam. On the flip side, you probably didn't set the squish at 0.035" to 0.040", so the bleed-off of the longer cam won't allow the motor to build cylinder pressure to the point where you might worry about detonation either.PLANET EARTH, INSANE ASYLUM FOR THE UNIVERSE.
Damn, that's something I didn't want to hear. I'm glad I got to meet him and Rosie and Rick. I'm proud to have had him as a friend, RIP Johnboy
