"the most understanding spec there for you is basic operating range...3000-6000rpm. not your requirements. you'd like about 1500-5500. 114 degree lobe separation is a top end grind. a compcams unit for that application would be about 106 degrees, producing bottom end torque.*i never liked or understood them. they were popular 30 yrs. ago and are now out of business"
