I think you will like it a lot. It should push you back in the seat real good.

But how it runs also depends on the rest of the vehicle, especially the gears. Do I remember you saying you had an overdrive automatic transmission? If that's the case, that will help how it accelerates because the OD automatics have a low first gear.

What is the car or truck it's going in to?

BIG van. You did right by choosing a cam that will make good torque at a low rpm. I knew a guy who had a Chevy G10 van w/305 engine, he put a Comp 268H cam in it and it was so slow to accelerate that his mom (who he did the work for) refused to drive it! It had a TH350 and high rear gears which didn't help.

Yes! I mail things to Belgium all the time to my family there in Liege Belgium, I dont see any problem that would arise mailing to Holland! By the way There is a memorial in Liege of my Uncle who set up a machine gun and held off the Germans advance alone till the allies came to rescue the town His name was Rene Boussart, My mother was in the underground fighting the German occupation! I used to vacation there it was great when I was a child I was amazed by Manneken Pis as a child He was always dressed in Alie'd uniforms!

OF COURSE NOT, they´re not a charity for hotrodders.
But for your ten dollar part shipping won´t be too much.

Is that meant for me Malc?, The shipping's not bad by mail we send gifts back and forth Between my cousins and I all the time and this part doesn't weigh much and I wont insure it. And a piece of stollen (not a loaf) or a piece of good marzipan (not a box full) Is a fair payment between hot rodders LOL
