Re: [Healeys] Alloy Head

[Magnus Karlsson <magnuskarlsson@bornet.net>]

ItB4s a 300 degree camshaft supplied by Denis Welch. My text got altered
during transmission. I didnB4t write 300B0.

I would always choose the 300 degree over the 278 degree as you get a very
noticeable change in performance with the 300 degree and retain the
tractability.
