I'm assuming you mean to shim the springs to get the seat pressure up for the cam. Well its only got .512" lift with a 1.6 rocker.

I ran it N/A with about 9.5:1 compression on out of the box Edelbrocks, Performer intake, 24lbes, etc. Had lots of mid and top end, driveability wasn't too bad, under 2,000 it bucked a little bit but that was the state of tune. I sold it to a friend for his stock 5.0 with 351 DOOE heads, and Cobra intake. So far that setup works almost as good as mine. And he doesn't have the driveability issues I had since he set the car up right away.
