Cam turns out to be a little different than what Rick Squires remembered when he sold it to me.
it's a 232/236 .596/.581 on a 114lsa. With my crane golds, the lift is right where I want it to be. I'm still debating switching this out, especially since I'm now moving to tubular header front mount (which says I should go single pattern) and since the turbos are probably a little small (which says I should go 6* intake biased on a reverse split).
But, both Rex and Richard really like this cam for the motor... hard to really argue with them...

Lil update:
I have a huge orange thing in my garage!
Ended up with a new cam after all -- the old one got a little sick... Rex speced it for me, and from memory, it's a 238/239 .57x/.57x on a 115lsa
I've got a build sheet and some picks to post up later.
Now that I have it here... It's forecast high in the 10's and winterstorm warnings until next August

I feel I should add that I would have stuck with the old cam. Or ground something the same size again if the cam get hurt. Just my two cents. I would hope that with that new cam the turbos are up front this time.

You must have missed the other thread

Twin front mounts. The old cam was toast, unfortunately (as were the cam bearings that prompted the 427).

Thats a start then. LOL.
You know, I had a cam smaller than your original cam in Marks 438 twin turbo. Turbos dont need much cam, keep that in mind.
