I was told I have a boss 351 cam in motor or something close to it. Does anyone have specs on an original boss 351 camshaft?------------------

Haha... I feel dumb. Nope, it's a girly man cam. I was a little, uh, hindered last night when I wrote that. I was actually told that the cam sounds and behaves like it has boss 351 specs. Who knows... I was kind of just curious what a boss cam actually specs out at.------------------

Not impressive, to say the least, but that's what my exhaust note is like right now with the girly man cam and way too quiet mufflers. I thought the motor had a stock 4V cam, but after a ride in the car, a coworker said it pulled too high rpm wise to have a stock 4V cam and that it behaved and sounded like a boss cam (still falls flat on its face around 6 grand - also bc I'm way undercarbed).------------------
