The last 467 I recently built I went with a custom ground camshaft from Paul using voodoo lobes that is very close to Old Faithful specs. 239/243 @ .050 and a pinch over .600 lift and on a 112 LSA. I installed it at a 106.25 ICL. Engine is 9.98:1 compression with iron heads. Dyno'd with 91 pump gas.

Stock intake, carb, and exhaust manifolds and it made 507/571 on the dyno and idles with only a slight attitude and makes 13 inches of vacuum up here at 5,000 feet elevation. Car has working AC and is an automatic with a custom converter through Cliff that drives fantastic. Easily a daily driven car if one wanted to, behaves nicely.

I'd lean on what others said, with an engine this size I really wouldn't even look at a camshaft any smaller than 230's @ .050 intake duration. The 455's gobble that up like it's not even there. I don't even consider a cam rambunctious in these engines until you start getting up closer to 250 @ .050.
