I don't have any experience with it...but by looking at the specs, I could make some comments.

1. Lope is determined a lot by duration and by lobe separation. I think the duration for this cam at .050" is 224 degrees....coupled with a 109 degree lobe separation, this could probably be a cam with a lope stronger than a stock 5.0L cam....it would be noticeable. Definitely not radical or rough though.

2. Yes. Cam specs give a range from 2200 to 5200....this could be used with a stock torque converter....although a little stall could help get you into the powerband quicker.

3. I'd say this would idle at around 800 rpm.

4. You can buy this engine from Jegs or Summit Racing...
