You should check with the cam mfg., because maybe you are running an ultra-aggressive lift cam. For the most part, .024 cold is a good starting point and most FE motors/cams respond to this. Mine are .024 cold; my cam is a relatively mild .579 lift. Sounds like Chopper is on the right track with his comments about alum. heads.
