That said, I am not too close minded to listen to suggestions, recommendations, and other people's experiences with tighter LSA cams that make great power and are very streetable. What tighter LSA camshafts/lobe designs out there make power over with the same broad range as a cam with a wider LSA and is as equally streetable (good vacuum, low idle, no need for a big converter)?

My friend's RAIV headed 428 in a 70 TA stick car. Swapped an UD 288/296 on a 110 from Butler for an 068. Thought it felt slower than the 068 until he took it to the track and it went .2-3 seconds faster. Idled just barely more lope.

Lee Atkinson had same cam on a 108 in his first gen Bird got in the 11s with it. I had one on a 108 in a 455 in my TA that ran PB and A/C and no Rhoades lifters. With a road race suspension the car open headers ran 12.30s@118.
