Hello Everybody, as stated previously I am new to the Triumph list.  I've been 
on for a couple of days now and am really enjoying it. I'm also fairly new to 
this"E-mail /computer " stuff so bear with me. Any way I'm currently 
undergoing a frame off restoration on my 71 TR-6 and am currently rebuilding 
the engine. Its going to be somewhat "warmed up" (10:1 comp. slightly ported 
head, oversized pistons, etc.) and I came across a "crowler" brand regrind. I 
was wondering if any one knows  what the cam specs for a stock cam are. The 
crowler lists as .405" lift with 266 duration. I wanted to go a little bit 
"wilder" but the price was so low I couldn't refuse. I guess its just as well 
as I don't really plan on racing the car and I want my wife to be able to 
drive it. (helps me justify the $$$ going into the car). Any comments? Does 
this cam sound reasonable?  Thanks for any input that you all might have.
