Yes Brett, standard 3/8” press in, standard 1.5 ratio, standard pushrods. It’s a mild duration 214* with 0.429” lift, similar to X2 spec. Springs to suit.
They weren’t easy to come by but Wyse Industries came through. They cost me more than the cam, which I got via gumtree. Crow stainless which are half the price of yella terra.

Yeah Neil 8 )
Battery got enough to start it so warmed up and set the rollies by ear + 1 turn. Some hassle getting the cover back on with the bigger hardware. The vacuum and fuel lines are close. I’m glad I spaced the thermostat housing out.
Snuk out under the radar down the back. Up to 60 on the Speedo a couple of times in second gear. 120kmh which I think is near enough 4900rpm. I’m impressed how smooth it is up there. First time I’ve really been able to appreciate the dough I threw at getting every thing balanced. Never had a sweeter reving six!
