I'm going to put one in the low compression '73 455 that's currently in my Formula. I think it should work just fine in that and certainly have a LOT more midrange power than the stock cam that's in there now.
Ant trying to be a smart ass but, that's exactly what I did. A stock 73 Bonnie engine with a rings and bearings build. The 702 cost a bit more, but OMG, the difference in it over the 2802.
Instant throttle response, slight sound at idle, and all in by 4800rpm.
Again, at the track, only bout 2 tenths quicker, but seat of pants meter says Way more than that!
The 2802 seems stock, after having the 702 in their.
Had sooo many complements from passengers when the 702 was in. 3700lb car with 3:15 gear, stock log exhaust ,and a stock 455. They accused me of lie, said no way is that thing stock .
