I love them on the street!
I've run the MP .528 in a 440 and, IMO, there is no better street/strip cam!
Use some Crane iron rockers and you'll have a nice, reliable piece that makes awesome power.

I'm running a MM grind solid. 243@.050 and .55 lift in a 496 "B". I love it. Valve adjustment holds up well. Valvetrain upgrades (3/8 pushrods, comp pro magnum rockers) probably help keep it happy. There is a little more mechanical noise which I don't mind a bit.

Worked real good on the street. It was an Ultradyne .590/.613 made for 440s in heavy cars.
Yes, mine was one of the heavy ones. 65 Plymouth Sport Fury at 4000 lbs. Drove it darn near everyday for 4 years.
Now, the Cuda is a different story. Some cams are just a plain b!tch on the street

Sounds great, my minds made up then.... I like the looks of the Hughes profiles. The 4248 looks to be a good street strip piece. Do you guys think 10* locks & retainers are a must with solid lifter valvetrain that will see 6400 rpm?
