More HP from 5.9 Magnum

Thats a nice cam, was thinking about something similar in lift with a bit less duration, for a 5.9 I am putting together for a "quickie" no trans swap into my 67 vert. Its getting a new top and I refuse to trailer it to the upholstery shop:D A rod knock on fresh rebuild from previous owner is all thats stopping me. Well that and a pump n tank fuel system.

Did that issue of CC hit the store yet? I would be interested to see what rockers they ran.

Negative,of this week. Usually a three month wait,we are on two. Minimal on upholstery myself(glass race buckets,cheapo carpet,and a basic stereo..The rockers ,will be interesting.I went with a Howard's retro la grind,was too close to coil bind with Hughes 1110 setup ,& 1.6 stock stuff. Went Crane conversion kit,& 1.5 Chev Comp rockers.
My Maggie was free: guy wanted a Cummins in his truck,the 5.9 had three flat cam lobes,& the warranty replacement heads were cracked. The E.Q.'S are so much better port wise,I still shake my head...
