You could have some goes on mine Sam,

Maybe a Drag guy like you could help me convince some others that Aluminum is not so bad..  ;)
While we are at it. Mike Rieck ever been to CO?? He and Bruce would have a blast with motor talk.

One of my buddies was one of the founding investors for HPR and now the treasurer. I could call tomorrow and find out what the Schedule looks like.

Hmm. Perhaps this should be moved to a new thread? Have a SOHC4.net meet at HPR? Is there interest? I'll volunteer for some planning duties.
???

FYI, I posted this on another thread referencing this cam, but thought it would be good over here too.

I just had a chat with Ken.  He said that the cam is identical to the -75 megacycle but has 3* more duration on intake AND exhaust.... A changed that slight can be deleted by running the tappets a little looser.  His explanation was that it was an extra 1.5* on either end of the lobe, which would put the intake on the CX-7 opening at 27.5* BTC and closing at 57.5* ABC.   Exhaust would be open at 54.5* BBC and closed at 25.5 ATC.  Lobe centers 105 int and 104.5 exh.  Overlap, closed dur., etc can be tinkered with a bit with the tappets.  the CX-7 is basically identical to the 125-75.
