Well, Tom, I wasn't planning on driving this car full time once I get my 77 Plymouth fury fixed (nice car, good interior, paint, 360 4 barrel, just needs tranny) and I was seriously gonna do a job with this wagon. I'm going to install a 66 sure grip rear, which will give me a bit more clearance for some slicks, and some super stock springs along with a new cam to send me to the 12s. I already have the carb, intake and heads, clutch and all that good stuff. It just needs to be street able to the track and back (20 miles???). Been looking at Racer Brown, and Lunati with a bit of drool on my chin. I've also been thinking about taking it one more step old school: no electronic ignition upgrades, just a dual point distributor and some good wires, and plugs.

if the price is right go for it. if the price is
camparable to a purple shaft with more duration go for
that.
its not so big that it will load up, but big enough to
bump at idle. my guess is the bump will probably
disappear at between 1000 & 1500 RPM.
i bet it will perform well up to 5000 or so, but if
you are only street driving, what more do you need?

i have a similar cam in my (gasp) small chevy, it gets
good mileage and seems to have decent power.
