Wouldn't a roller cam give you more power? I have heard of numerous 454 magnum rebuilds that have dyno'd at 500+ hp

Rags,
Straight up the ICL is 109* on a 114* LSA, so you're +5* advanced.

Its the same cam as the stock 525SC cam. Crane makes another cam that is very close in specs and comes in kit form cam part #134241, kit part #134242. It was way cheap compared to the 525sc cam. Like $150 for the kit at Summit.

Specs are .534/.553 and 226/236 on a 112 lobe sep.
