    yep i know BUT they want him to run a stock GM cam with Gm part numbers so there a bigger marine cam 440hp cam and use the roads lifters this may work good but ? the smaller cam should be ok i would try both cams . has alot to do with what RPM he going to be at

    well how much RPM do you need were do you need for rpm ?the bigger cam i do not think it will make any vacuum sold lifter is the way i would go and you could play with the lash abit but the l88 cam is abit big with your low cr .the 440hp cam will need roads lifters not shure your going to pass tech with it and your cr is abit low for the cam OEM 41436 Eligin #e1117p 549/558@050..232/239..110 lc this cam i would use if you could get abit more cr would help more like cams i have used i the past
