I have started planning my 36 horse engine build,(vintage speed) which includes dual 28 pci's, a 010, and possibly an abarth style exhaust, and in the process i started looking at performance cams, to see if such a thing existed. What I ran into was a bunch of high dollar custom fabricated solutions as well as clearance issues. Has anyone used the performance cam WW offers? what alterations would be necessary to use this cam? According to WW these are the specs. 234 degree duration at .040" (or 227 degree duration at .050"), .345" lift, 24 degree overlap. If you have used this cam before, what improvements were seen, and were you able to use stock pushrods/lifters?


Here's the part in question
