Thats what GM uses on the Ramjet 350 and the HT383.
Why not go for the GM LT4 Hotcam with its 218°/228° duration at 0.050" and 0.525"/0.525" lift with 1.6:1's or 0.492"/.492" with 1.5:1's on a 112° LSA.
The Ramjet/HT383 cam is pretty tame.
The Hotcam is good for 400 hp with iron Vortec heads with a carb and aluminum intake with longtubes.
This all wont work iif you have a flat tappet engine, those are all roller cams I have been talking about. Am I missing something here, do you have a Vortec block in yiour truck or soemthing??
peace
