Default New cam

Got a new comp cam HR to replace the crower HFT I’ve been using. Engine guy questioned a couple of the rhoads vmax lifters,, nothing wiped but while we’re in there I don’t want any upcoming possible problems. Had Kauffman custom grind,, asked for their 236/242 cam but add 2 more degrees of exhaust duration for a 236/244 112 ls. On their site the 236 /242 cam has an advertised 290 but mine is 286 . Numbers wise I’m just a little bigger than the crower I’ve been using. Hopefully it works out good. 455 .040 over, 9.75-1, rare manifolds with their 3” headpipes. Stock , slightly reworked iron intake. TKX trans with 2.87 first gear and 3.31 rear. I use crower SS 1.60 enduro rockers.
Only 67 degrees of overlap?
