how's it run , sound, need 9.5 compression ? any other info ?

no one running close to this ?

Sorry...I run street rods, and that's too much cam for cruisin.
That's a power cam so your rear has to be so high to stay in the power band that you'd kill a small block quick.
With the lift the same you won't get much lump if that's what you were asking about.

That's a pretty mild cam. How it sounds also depends on what size motor your running, mainly your crank stroke. The more the crank stroke the milder the cam will sound.
With a 114 degree lobe seperation it's my guess the cam would sound stock, and those duration figures aren't really that high either to make that radical cam bump. Sounds like a nice street cam. If your looking for the more radical cam sound get something with a lobe seperation around 110 or less. But remember you will loose vacuum and drivability with lower lobe seperation numbers and higher duration numbers.
