If I still had the car/motor and was putting in a new SFT, I'd probably drop about 8 degrees off of the intake and spread the LSA a bit more.

Thanks Lee. That's a big move to drop off 8 degrees on the intake side from what I've read everywhere is that would put it below a hydraulic Ram Air IV grind. I'm thinking with the increased exhaust duration and wider lsa than you ran 112 vs 108 I think it will be ok??? Maybe... I'm not sure but I think I'm gonna try the custom crower SFT cam. If it's terrible I can change it later it's not a big deal or big investment compared to a roller setup. I might loose lash it a hair to give the bottom end a boost.
