Did you get a cam card with it? If they gave you seat-to-seat events for it, like intake opening, closing, etc., am curious to know what they are.
That cam looks similar to factory RR cam, except on 112 LSA instead of 115.

I ended up buying the smaller Summit cam (6400, not the 6401). Here are the specs, anyone see a problem in using this cam?
You have , use it .

You'll do fine with that cam.
Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.

Here is a link to the cam card.

It will run great and still melt tires--it will just sound like a stock 318 ---It will have enough vacuum to pull the booster off the firewall

it'll work, might be leaving a little on the table as far as power and/or drivability due to the relatively lazy ramps and longish duration...

Crower 271HDP. 222/234@.050 .496/486 lift in 112's in at 107. run the 3.23's and you'll be fine with just a standard 383 converter. If you had more compression or 915 closed chamber heads get it cut on 108 centers.
Crabman (David K's) cam also is a great cam for the $$$, it's the old General Kinetics grind that PAW also sells as their House grind, it's very close to the Crower in duration but has a little less lift. The Crower 271 is one of those Natural cams that just does everything great.
383's love to rev but the trick is to not kill the bottom end, it has to be cammed more like you would a smallblock.
This is an AWESOME cam, maybe the best all-around BBM hydraulic cam ever made. It's also a great stock replacement cam for a 440 six pack or magnum.
