Steve:

I've used the piper 270 cam. It's a very good grind. You wont go wrong
using it. I would suggest that you use early style 8.7 pistons though. It
will work even better if you take a small slice off of the head. Say about
.020.As you increase the cam overlap, you need to increase the comp. ratio.

Cheers:
