Bill--
What a coincidence...I went thru the same thing with my blower motor, I
have the Summit cam for the big block (more lift, similar duration) in
my mild blown 454. It works great, and I'm tied with one Comp Cam
failure and one Summit cam failure.
You'll like it, but I suggest you run a 2500 rpm stall speed converter.
