Like I always preach it not about tricks and spending lots of money. Think your combo out before buying parts. When I port heads I spend extra time to get my under .500 lift numbers where I want them. When I talk to Jim he loves the fact I pretty much stick with solid lifter cams and when I give him my flow numbers they are always given at .050 not .100 lift (.350-.400-.450-.500 etc) Jim can trek his old grinds so the more good info he gets the more his skills show up. And yes he does love above average duration and sometimes split duration.
