Need input from big cam users.

Rick,

Thx for the effort. Not sure if this cam is that one of course. Seems odd that the guy that originally did the car would put such a radical cam and leave a stock converter in it. Makes no sense. The guy that sold me the car is not any help. He will make no effort to find out anything. I laid into him pretty hard after I specifically told hym the engine pinged before I bought it and he said it had been checked out by his so called great mechanic. Oh well I will do what I can and if push comes to shove I will have the engine pulled and rebuilt with a more suitable cam.
