It was very smooth with an 800 rpm idle and pulled to 5800. I ran a best time of 13.23 at 103 with that cam with 9:1 compression, a Performer intake with Holley 850DP and 3.73 gears. It was alos my daily driver at the time. I then changed out the cam for a Herbert cam with 244/244 @ .050 with a .544/.544 on a 110LSA and went 12.96 at 106. That cam had a lope to it though and idled at 1000rpm.

Roger. I stand corrected.
FTR, if the choice were between these two motors, I'd go with the 429.
