Couldn't give you numbers, but it should make a nice street engine. I'm looking at using the same cam in a 455 (probably with 1.65:1 rockers) with some porting on 6X-4s and RARE Ram Air exhaust manifolds.... should be a nice combo.....I'm not looking for a race engine.
I have been told the 068, 744 and 041 cams do work better with some reasonable compression. I'm looking at around 9.5:1 CR....you may want to figure in some milling on those heads to lift the stock compression.
