I'm trying to decide on an aftermarket cam for Dees67. I've had several recommendations for
Isky's Mega 264 (214/214, adv 264/264, lift 0.480). And I know lots of folks running a 204/214
split profile cam and are happy with it. I like the specs of the Isky, but I'm afraid it's going to be
too rough an idle for SWMBO. I think camachinist is running one, anyone else? How's the idle?
I believe the torque will be terrific, but if it idles like a Winston Cup car, SWMBO will make me
swap the cam and I don't want to have to do that. On the other hand, the car is a cruiser and has
a 2.79:1 rear gear so I need all the torque I can get, given the idle constraints.
Also, can someone post the specs on a stock C-code 289 cam for comparison's sake?
