>>> BTW, here's the cam specs:
> Gross Valve Lift .480, Duration @ .050 210/220, Lobe Sep. 108.0<<

Remember one very important thing: most cam specs are published with 1.5
rockers in mind. Magnum V8s have 1.6 rockers which changes the lift numbers.
This can change your lift figures significantly.

And like others have said, keep the compression ratio in the high 8's or low
9's if you plan on boosting it at all. Hypereutectic pistons don't like
giggle gas, so avoid one or the other. =)
