lo po cam dilemma

Go hillbilly low buck style...

I think that cam is cut on a 108LSA. Wind that sucker ahead to 100ish installed centerline and check piston to valve clearance. Should be good, but always check. It will make more low end and still have the kick of the bigger camshaft. Done this a lot with low compression 360-400-440 engines. Crank a bunch of initial timing into it and it will be a bunch different than the lazy runner it once was. Doesn't cost anything either, cause you already have it!
