For  reasons that I have never clearly understood, the 140 powerglide crank 
gear  actually RETARDS the cam about 3-4 degrees.    Retarding a cam  gives you 
less on the bottom end and more at higher revs where your engine  will 
infrequently run.



Travis and all,
This is fully explained in my book, CORVAIR SECRETS. it is too long to  
repeat here. Get a copy of the book and then you will know how and why Chev  
retarded the cam on the 140 hp PG engine.
