Before I swap in my rebuilt 292 into my '30 Model A Tudor should I reconsider the camshaft that is in it? The car is a Model A with a '48 Ford banjo rear with 3.73 gears and 750X16 tires. The motor has stock style pistons 0.40 " oversize and "G" heads, offenhauser 3 two intake with three 94's. I'm a little concerned that the exhaust opens late compared to some other cams and just don't want to be disappointed once it is in the car.     

The camshaft in the rebuilt motor is a new Comp Cam unit with:
.471" Gross lift both intake & exhaust
at .050" lift intake opens at 4* BTDC closes at 40* ABDC
at .050" lift exhaust opens at 43* BBDC closes at 7* ATDC
Duration @ .050" intake, 224* exhaust 230*
lobe lift , .3140 both intake & exhaust
lobe separation 108*
