Joe,
I've been real happy with my Babe Erson cam that you and Jack
had hardened for me a couple of years back... It's what Ken
Gillanders calls his "autocross cam"... It's .55 lift with a 300
duration (if memory serves, being away from my reference). It's
not too lopey at idle (it likes about 11-1200), has a nice
powerband lot's of grunt... Now that I have gone back to the
standard ratio rear through my locker, I'm still please with its
performance. So far the Ford GT40 sleeved lifters are doing just
fine too... just make sure you locktite the sleeves in should
you decide to use them.

That's not a leak... My car's just marking its territory...
