<VV> PG 140 & 4-speed

[ray smith]

I like this combination for a street car with 4 speed also , great power under 5,000 rpm ,but if he was intending to use another cam of longer duration it could make for a dissappointing combination. 
That was my point.

...but if you keep the 95 cam with the PG crank, the combo seems to 
work out rather nicely when bolted to a 4-speed.


At least this has been my experience.
