I had that cam, and it's a bit big for street use, but works decent with a single plane manifold(mine was a torker II)

Dont see a picture bro, its probably just this junk computer.

Also, im thinkin 434 now. So 4" stroke. Eagle makes some h beam rods that clear up to 4"s. However im still scared of clearence issues other than the oil pan. Will there be any clearance issues with the crank hitting the block or the rods hitting the block? If not a 4" stroke crank costs the same as a 3.75 so i might as well go all out. What do you think?
