yep. big cam on 106icl in a flat top LS2 with larger than stock valves in milled heads. I had to cut the pistons .090 to clear the exhaust valve. luckily I didn't start cutting pistons before verifying the cam specs.

Anyone else want to comment on how nasty that cam gear looks? Good lord that engine is dirty...

How many miles on this pig? What kind of cam are you putting in?
