Thats a very odd sounding cam grind to me ?? 12 degrees duration seperation ??
At any rate .. you don't have anything that needs that much stall. Then again to much won't hurt anything except drivability. If you find your cam card, post the numbers i'd like to see them.

The .301 is lobe lift, if you multiply that by 1.7 (the rocker ratio) you have a valve lift of .512
