Degreeing a Cam, or not.....

That’s a tiny cam for a 512 engine. As stated too small of fi system also. Degree the cam at least. I doubt that ur engine even pulls to 5500. It’s a torque monster for sure. A 1000 4150 style carb will pick it up like u won’t believe. My 470 gained 2.5 tenths going from a 750 to a 1000. Kim
