Good points TJ. That was my original assessment too. It's nice to have some confirmation. Do you have similar mods to your 292 too, like increased compression and head work?
I really like the range of that cam, 1200-5200 rpms. I'm going to have a pretty tall OD, with 3.42 rear gears, a World Class F-body T-5 5 speed with the .63 5th gear, and 28-29" tires, my highway cruise rpm (72-75mph) should be in the 1800-1900 rpm range. So hopefully, it'll like the lower rpms for cruising as well as 5000-5500 rpms for when I feel the need to let her sing. lol
I'm going to go ahead and order a 4 barrel intake, too. The exhaust manifold showed really hot spots in the 2-3 and 4-5 exhaust ports. I know they get hot, but the lean condition I'm sure played a part in that, and I have too much money in this thing to mess it up before I can drive it.
Thanks for the comments and suggestions.
