how'd the build end up?

I was thinking about the using NRHS as well.

Did you get it dyno'd? numbers?

Also, did you do the work yourself or pay for the install? Where/how much did this project cost ya?

I'm in CO too, so any and all info you've got would be a huge help!

How much more lift can he go with that? .525? that would be .015 more, lift is not what makes the cam, duration is, how long the valve is open.
