What's the real purpose of the car's use? No use building a race engine for the street. If the car is for track work, go for broke. If it isn't (be honest) build the best damn road car you can build. That means you'll seldom run over 3000 rpm on the road (that's 100+ in my car) If the engine is cammed to come in at 4500 you'll seldom get to use it. Too much cam really destoys the driveability of a great GT car. This is the biggest mistake made by first time Cobra builders. Badger
