I respectfully disagree. The main reason to have one reproduced would to be for fraudulent reasons. Turning base cars into high performance ones. I see this stuff with Corvettes all the time.

I agree. Also thanks for the additional info. It's not heat soak or percolation since it's doing it cold while running. A float could be hanging up or a hair too high still. Also, what is the fuel...

Sounds like the fuel is boiling in the bowls due to heat soak. New fuel does this, especially in hot weather. If it's not doing it while running at idle, this is likely the issue. You may need an...

Probably because cams and lifters worked 99% of the time back then. I never had a failure, and didn't know anybody who had one, personally.

I swapped the 3.55 rear gear in my 4 speed '65 GTO for a set of 3.36 gears in 1990. My cruise speed went from 60 mph to 70 mph. To me, a big enough difference to be worth it.

For the OP: with the...

I would stick to the known good cam and lifters that are in there now. Why risk parts failure? Also, you did not state what your goal was. Why do you want to change the cam?
