Reply to "Solid Flat Tappet Street Cam"

I am hoping to get both good performance and good drivability from this cam. To say it another way, it would be nice if power came on at lower RPM's. It could happen because it has a 9:1 compression ratio by design (actually the second design). I am also hoping that there is adequate manifold vacuum to run the brake booster. On the test stand the engine was pulling about 12.8 inches HG. I think it is right on the fence for making the brake booster functional. But all of this is speculation until the car is painted, assembled, and driving. I am currently side tracked from this because I brought home another Pantera from Lancaster, CA in February. The car had been stored for decades and I am trying to get it on its feet. I am looking forward to getting back to this project shortly.
