Nope,But it's a great cam for a lightly modified mostly street car running on pump gas. It's got a bumpy idle. SteveW

Dub,
I don't have a sound clip for you, but we one in our '65. It sounds great running through headers, cherry bombs and duals.   Dave & Terri ------------------

 270 is a great street grind The 's' could be worth as much as 10-15 hp/torque! ------------------

I don't have the 270S but I do have a solid that sounds like that. Nothing close to a sleeper sound. Erik ------------------

270S is the same for 289-351W. You just use the 289 firing order. I don't like anything larger than a 268 S or H for a stoned stock engine. No headers, no 270. ------------------

gears are suggested, and the 270H is the largest cam you can go with the stock converter. Headers and 4-bbl carb as well. [This message has been edited by Dubz (edited 12-11-2002).]
