Dave, I used a Mummert Y-284-S cam and all other parts from John (GREAT stuff!!). The manifolds are my stock 56 manifolds. I used them, as I did not want to drill my headers for the sensors. The nice thing is that I know I will be over 300 HP once I put my headers on!  Other nice thing is that my engine builder said that another 30 / 40 HP is available to this motor with an MSD distributor and upgrading on my carb. Possible future upgrades if my wallet allows!!! LOL

Thank you for the response. Almost 300 hp through '56 manifolds, I like it. Your cam choice is just a bit larger than I would have guessed, but it's nice to see how it all worked together. Can't wait till I'm able to spend some money at John's candy store! -Dave.

Initially John was going to recommend a larger cam for my motor, but because it is primarily used as a street car, he said that any wilder and I might not like it on the street! Cam he selected for me, should be good on the street and in traffic, but also have enough kick to keep Lon Argent (in Bob Martin's Merc) in my rear view mirror!!!
