    for a heavy truck that cam should lite the turbo pretty well and have a tight power band...least how i see it. not something i would use for my RCSB but something like my crew id use it
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    And what do the degrees in over lap mean. Mine being -1.50 does that mean i have no overlap at all or just less of it. I put in diff cam specs and got one for -13.1 over lap. Then i tried another and got positive overlap.

    my previous cam was a 231/235 .617.620 113+2lsa ...new F.I cam is a 222/222 .601.601 115 LXL lobes

    Pat G said my previous cam had too much overlap and dynamic compression.... now its so quiet at idle but its still untuned...

    6 positive, not 7.

    I've always been taught to add the BTDC and the ATDC. The BTDC is 2 and the ATDC is 4.
