It sounds somewhat radical. It has a 108 LSA, which makes for a lumpy idle. But more importantly, it will decrease your ET by about one second. Tim Burgess, our illustrious Electronics Board moderator is the only one I know who uses this cam. His '92 Z28 with a 305 and 5-speed runs low 13's. With nitrous, he has run a 12.07.

I've always wondered about that cam. It seems like people would be attracted to it but I hear nothing about it. Maybe because its expensive.
