Thanks guy's, but after a bunch of recomendations from alot of people on several forums I have decided not to go with this cam.
Haven't quite decided yet on which cam but think I will move onto the cylinder heads.
Time to take them to the shop and get them done.

Though you're not using this cam I'd say it's a good compromise. If I were you, I'd bump the compression a bit. The L92 heads flow well and do well with 10.8-11 CR on 93 octane.

Spent the day cleaning and straightening the garage getting it ready for the winter projects. Have to build a new motor for the Camaro and rebuild the Mustang's 5.0.
Should be a busy winter.

Hi Everyone,
Been a long time since my last post, life got in the way big time.
Had to put the Camaro on hold for a while but I'm back on it.
Just spent the last 6 months block sanding & sanding & sanding & sanding to get everything as straight as possible.
Sprayed 3 coats of primer surfacer last weekend and started to sand that down with 320, 400, then 600.
Hope to get it into the paint shop in the next few weeks.
More progress reports to follow.

The plan right from the first day I started this was to go satin black.
I can’t see it going any other color.

Nice. Wasn't sure if that changed given the time.

All sanded and ready for the paint shop.
They're picking it up in the morning.
