<VV> Cam

[Bob Gilbert]

Howdy Lon,
I guess I want my cake and eat it too.  Ether the 270 or 280 cam, 
probably the 270. The lifter leak down should give me stock like low end 
and still give great power when the rpms are up. If I don't like the set 
up then it will probably go in the next project, my '62 Spyder. Your 
thoughts?
Thanks,
Bob
