You will definitely find your 0.1 horsepower and then some by doing the cam timing...you need some special tools and quite a bit of patience...

I think I would have had Corey do it while it was there. That, and port the heads while he was at it. 430+ then!!!!!!! Hell, maybe 440 with your numbers.

I forgot that Milstead did a write up on timing the cams too...

That 2 volume GM video jobbie shows this. My wife's got a DVD recorder now, perhaps I'll have to give it a whirl...
