Why would he need to degree it to 106 if it is 110 with 4* advanced Installing it straight up? 110-4=106 correct? You would not have to degree it to 106 since the 4* of advance.
Or am I confused???

Yes, it would be a good idea to know what the cam is speced at before you put it in lol.
Should be a beast though.

that's a graph for a stock 5.3L head. Anybody care to explain scienficially how running a cam with .575 lift would gain more than a couple rwhp than running one with .520 lift?

i made more power to a higher rpm with my low lift comp 212/218 than i did my 216/224 .551 115lsa vinci cam. my 212/218 is still making power at 6300 where i shift, where the 216/224 started to fall on its face at 5750. mark i don't know if that helps you out any but i thought it was pretty interesting
