Wish I had an original cam, or early NOS LT1. I would put it in the short block we are am building now. Headers do help, manifolds are restrictive. Wide ratio trans. also get you out of the hole better. Did any body ever really check a spec cam? Lift and duration, lobe centers, ramp speeds, are they really what they say they are. I never personally checked a spec cam from Crane. I just took there word for it being a 1969 302 spec cam. I am going to pay more attention to what cam we use in this motor. Maybe try a different cam company.
