Started S&S 124 thinking of 590 cam to go with it.

M8 is whole different ball game with the 4-valve heads. Most bolt-in cams don’t exceed .485 lift, most non-bolt in cams are sub .550. The cam timing, duration splits, lift, etc. is drastically different than what many of us are used to with the twin cams, evos, still getting used to it myself.
OP, what’s the static compression of your 124” kit? That 590 cam is gonna want around 12:1 static…it’s a real hot rod of a cam too…lot more cam than the 540.

I was wondering the same thing? I actually have had the cam plate in already for maybe 6000 miles. I took it all out while I was doing the 124 build and everything looks great. The only thing I noticed and has nothing to do with that was trany fluid in my primary. I'm going to try the tapered push rod for that. Is there something I should be looking for by having the S&S cam plate in there? If it's really going to be a problem then there's going to be a lot of angry people. I'm sure I'm not the only one who did this mod.

Watch the whole video if you want, much of it is BS, we want your dollars stuff but what the say here is the main thing.
