Hi Bob,

My setup is similar to what you propose:
Stock crank balanced with the stock flywheel, pressure plate, pistons and rods.
107 cams with 104 sprockets.
JAE .030 over flat top pistons from Delta.
Stock Dellorto 40's with 35mm chokes 140 mains and custom air correctors.
Pertronix and MSD 6A.
Stock headers with single tube exhaust. Koni shocks, Hawk brake pads, sway bars, poly bushings, and summer only 205/60-13's round out the package.

I haven't dyno'd it but the seat of the pants meter says it was a huge improvement over the stock.

If I were doing it again I would get a 2.2 crank, 11:1 pistons, a lightweight flywheel.

I'm also getting 17 MPG on the highway after installing the cams. There's your tradeoff!
