I haven't actually aquired the heads as of yet, but was mostly curious about what if I saw a set I wanted only they're press in studs. Anyways, thanks.

I have a Crane 272H in a low comp 455 olds. It has 272/284 adv. duration and 216/228 duration at .050". Most people tell me it's not enough cam, but I like the way it runs. I've considered using a similar cam in this engine and was curious if anyone had run anything similar or if this was too small. I've noticed the lift on Pontiac cams seems to be a little less than an Olds. Is the Ram Air III too small for a low comp 455?
