He doesn't yet have an HO cam, Vinnie.  Aside from the carb & intake he's all stock.

Adding too much to the engine with a stock wimpy cam may end up hurting you alittle.A lot of people randomly throw parts on an engine without a plan (I'm not finger pointing),but like a house,you need a good foundation,meaning,the shortblock.get a mild performance cam and put it in before you install the heads and all.That way,you can make the most out of what you're wanting to install without the engine falling flat on it's face (so to speak).You can get a new performance cam pretty cheap if you look around,and installing one really isn't that bad,pretty straight forward.It would be worth the investment.

Well, I'm building Brians old cougar motor for what will go in the car. GT40's on it now is a pipedream. I'll build the motor at Brians till it's almost done, pull mine, scab what I need and be good. Cam is going in it but not sure what yet. Also not sure of a few other things. It will be figures out later. I don't even have the heads yet...
