<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: [email protected]</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I was thinking about getting a 140 cam for mine but decided not to. It runs fine especially since I put the 56's in and changed the box to a wide ratio trans. To many people want to lift the hood on sbc's instead of jacking the car up and seeing whats under the trunk floor. </div></div>

Sam, you hit the nail right on the head! Long ago 56's 88's and 5.13's were common under a SBC to make them put the hurt on almost everything.On the street and set up right they were untouchable.Sadly the years of high rpm screamers have passed. I used to run a General Kinetics cam in my 327 with the 10's and it really needed the 88's under it to make it sing. When's the last time you heard a SBC at 7500 + sing on the street?
