Ernie,
Sorry to hear about your motor. Hopefully you won't go too whimpy on the cam and compression though. I ran into a similar type situation a while back and it actually turned out to be the type/brand of valvesprings I used were not matched very well to my first Crower cam. I then stepped down just a bit on the cam to get the power band down a tad, but made sure I had the correct / matched valve springs for the new cam the 2nd time around. If things are matched well, you can still make it somewhat radical and streetable, and still have the crackle-sound fun too.  Good Luck.
