I've got a question, would a scat C20 cam (.352 lift(w/1.1 rockers) Duration:277) work with this set up. I've got a 40hp case set up with a 1385cc bore kit with 1300 heads and dual single barrel carbs. Is this too much cam or should I stick with the stock cam? I'm just looking for a mild power increase nothing crazy.

my instinct is the lift may be fine but the duration may be a smidge much for smaller dual single barrels unless you have some plenum under them. I think it should be similar to an Engle W100 just with a bit less lift. If you can tolerate a choppy idle It'll probably work well.

I think a CB cheater cam would be the best option.
