YEAH had a General Kinetics cam too ..wow are they still in business?

My 1969 Impala 350/255 with a Woodro Built engine had a Lunati Cam he recommended.
Someone stole that engine.

At any rate that car is going for a full "cost too much money" restoration.
But it has been a Stocker since I bought it from Bob LaSala in 1975.

Budd Rowe built up a engine and think it has a cam from the 70's.
Only made 371 hp on the dyno. Used a set of GM Pinks Rods.
Bob Bender says he has a cam that I maybe interested in.

Glad it is a frame off because that frame had cracks in it.
Mostly small spots and needed patching in the Axle and Spring Pirtch areas.
