With all the internet BS about how good this cam sounds and what not, maybe the real satisfaction comes from a "stock like" cam, that pulls the good numbers, has excellent daily driven street manners, etc etc.

I'm not sure the 1.85 rockers are going to be kind to the valve springs with over .620"+ valve lift.
You definitely will need to check to see if the valve springs can handle this much lift.Richard

I love seeing these kinds of results!
Personally Im gonna stick with my oddball cam (226/.591/116) and do all the basic stuff to wring out all the power I can on 5psi before switching out cam but IF I do switch I might try this cam out. If my new converter doesnt stall as high as I would like it to then I'll defiantely be switching cams and I'll talk Rick into doing the GT/2 or something very similar lol.

This test should have been run on a stock 1983 dodge colt tune and denatured methanol in the tires. The left turn signal should have been on the whole time, too, to help balance out the obviously over-power right hand blinker fluid resevoir found on those hybrid eatons. So, in all these results are worthless for the common user!
Once again, top notch thread, Brian. I didn't want you to get all soft with all the praise in this thread so I added some of what you are more used to
