Eddie's Right.... I have been running Gen VI hardware @ .630/.631 with all the stock hardware works perfect and is
almost the best to run. = @ camshaft 0.353 lift but you have to run the right grid "base circle" to make it work right. plus I run 60 psi plus for oil pressure stock pump that's all you need.
