Someone can correct me if I'm mistaken, but, that is a large cam. Large cams are large cams regardless of who grinds them.

I have those heads with a 224/228 560+ lift 113 LSA (Cartek H-cam-not sure the specs).

With good tuning you get only some lope at 950 rpms, and with the A/C on a light shake. No other big cam problems, and with a tune, mild pulley and ported throttlebody good for 500/455+ FWHP/TQ.
