Cam number ?

I dion't think you're an azz at all, it's just an engine, surely at it's best it wouldn't have a massive amount of cyl pressure with the low comp ? the timing set is worn anyway, so i'll order one. Incidently, i had a 383 with a .509 cam that had way lower cyl pressure than this engine, i advanced that cam and it ran high 12's
