Thank you,

I ran that cam in my Baja. Outlawcowgirl owns the boat now. The engine was 454mag/365hp. It ran very well and pulled strong to about 5500rpms. With that cam, Imco exhaust, roller rockers, Holley 800 carb, and a K&N arrestor, I picked up about 400rpms.

I gave the same info to another OSO member who did a full rebuild and did a dyno pull right around 425hp. I think he also started with a mag engine.

The cam is also available in a kit form part #134242

Idle was around 900rpms in neutral and 750rpms in gear. It needs at least 10* initial timing to run decent. More intial would have been better, but I had a 24* module.
