However real time experience cant be beat, thus the question to you guys.

Not many run the 385 series BB over here so real info is limited.

I have had a real look around comp cams web site as you suggested and know how the info can be, shall we say engineered to look good, thus my hope that someone might have run one one here, you know with the sort of reply:-

" cam says lumpy idle but was hopless at the lights" etc

Anyway, any info is greatly received

Thanks
David,

That cam would give you a nice lopey idle but would still offer good street manners. I think it would be a good choice for you.
