OOhh almost forgot some good injectors to go w/ I heard AC/Delco flow 20% more then stock, good choice? just need help on those 2 things

The Edelbrock cam you've got listed is not for a 60 degree V6 it's the 396-454 big block cam. You must have copyed it's specs down accidently. I sent you an email.

KC,

I forwarded my emil to your address so you should at least get one of them.
They must have the listing wrong then because when I first read the specs you listed above I knew they sounded to big so i took a look at my Edelbrock catalog and found the same specs that you have listed next to the big block chevy cam.
the 2.8-3.4 Edelbrock cams specs are as follows: adv. duration: 253 deg. intake, 263 deg. exhaust.
duration @.050: 204 intake, 214 exh.
Lift @ cam .280 int., .295 exh.
Lift @valve: .420 int., .442 exh.
Lobe seps: 112 deg.
Intake centerline: 107 deg.
Forgot to mention that the part number for the 2.8-3.4 Edelbrock cam is: 3790
