IMHO, a pretty good camshaft. It has an idle that is a bit rougher than you would expect from the specs, but still has good low speed tractability. Plenty of lift - but watch the P/V clearances. From 2500RPM onwards, it builds a nice fat torque curve with a peak ~4K. It certainly gave my AUII much more top end power and willingness to rev.
