intake lobe is 4254 that is a lobe rated at 288 @.050 with a .440 lobe lift.
exhaust is a 1494 lobe rated at 304 @.050 with a .440 lobe lift also.

So what would total lift be?

Depends what ratio rockers you are using.

Lobe lift x rocker ratio = total valve lift

gross lift would be .660 with a 1.5 and .704 with a 1.6

You can install it where ever you want

I'd call comp and ask them what they recommend.

Not to be a smarta$$ but make sure you get a bronze drive gear for the intermediate shaft, roller springs and lifters, then you'll need different length pushrods as well.
Then you'll need to clay the pistons to check for proper clearance.

The IC is all based on the spec of the car and combo. You'd most likely be fine at 110, but I am also guessing the cam has 4* advance ground into it. The bottom line is put it where you want it, dont get caught up in anything else other than what IC YOU want. The 4* advance usually gets people all confused. SImply put the cam where you needit to be.
