What's your compression ratio? and you are talking about the car in your sig description right? If your over 9:1 comp. then this should sound pretty good..... 08-601-8 - Thumpr
I would suggest buying 1.6 rocker arms and get the cam and lifter kit. should be around 450 bucks then add whatever you spend on rocker arms. Jegs has some steel rollers for around 100 bucks a set.
Here's a video of a milder version of that cam...

I need to verify my compression but i already have flat Hyd lifters. I was thinking the 12-600-4 - thumpr. and possibly switching to 1.6 rockers
