Yep...another request for camshaft suggestions.

Hey all,
Quick follow up. Howards is out of those cores and said they may have camshafts by end of July. Impatient me, went looking again.

The Melling 23203 was my 2nd choice but then comparing it to the Comp XE256 grind, the 256 has a slightly tighter LSA and slightly less duration....both of which....if I've understood correctly, should "help" a low compression situation. Tighter LSA means the intake valve closes sooner, correct?

Still learning all of this black magic stuff...

In all, I likely wouldn't have noticed the difference between any of these cams but the Comp was in stock (I know, plenty of Comp horror stories), is an "in between" on lift numbers and should be plenty calm on the valve train.

One thing I read that I found interesting was someone mentioning camshafts being such an issue partly due to too high of spring pressure. I could wrap my head around this idea, though I'm sure there's an argument against this thought process as well.

I opted for Melling VS1120 springs, less pressure than the 901's but more than 340 springs. With small valves and not crazy high RPM, I'm thinking they'll be plenty of spring to keep things in check.

Thoughts and input are welcome. Thanks again to everyone who has contributed.
