Glad you like the cam...the specs look great for a 402.

Regarding the exhaust, in my experience the more free flowing the better. I'm not a big fan of lots of exhaust pipe. More pipe = more restriction regardless of the diameter.

The cutouts were before the exhaust merged I'm guessing? If that's the case, that was probably your problem. Merging the left and right exhaust banks is quite beneficial.
