The cam is real mild, a engnbldr 268. It uses slightly more lift and duration than stock allowing more air in & out. It is considered a rv cam, thus more torque, which is noticeable, though not huge. The car will pull grades in 5th gear now that it wouldn't before. Hp now, well the car still needs to be tuned @ about3500 rpms I have a misfire, mis, something I cannot put my finger on. The cam is supposed to be good from 1000-5000 rpms, not a reving cam for sure, but neither is the engine. With the new muffler the mis is audible though so when I take it to my mechanic he will know what I am talking about, lol.
