Make sure you check the springs as well - higher ratio rockers can cause
spring bind.

The 1.7s will give you some more outta the cam--- that's a mild cam, the
1.7s will wake it up.

I run 1.7s on a cam built to nearly your specs (but based on the 1.7
ratio)... Puts down 300 rwhp on a 360. Use correct pushrod length, etc. and
you should be fine.

I sell all the stuff for it...
