Re: Cams for 4G32
FWIW the #2 cam was very common in the early USA cars, it checks out to be 272° duration. Mid 70s the #6 cam was used and is 254° as I recall. I currently run a #2 with dual downs and find it has a very nice full powerband with good fuel economy.

Re: High Compression 2.6L Astron.
The area I hit water was on the front of the port as I was straightening it. I was finding on the flow bench that evening up the port each side of the guide boss worked wonders for flow.
