I have that cam in my 400. It has #48 heads, with somewhat more compression than yours though. Nearly smooth idle and good vacuum for power stuff.

Look at a Comp XE262, works good w/low compression, good idle, no flat spots in power up to 4800rpm, works good in my 79 TA 400 4spd, 3.23.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
