Summit G5000 Cam for TPI

Anyone used these cams? Here is the Summit info given:

Chevy: 1985-87 Camaro 305, 350, 1985-87 Corvette 350; Pontiac: 1985-87 Firebird 305, 350, 268/278 degrees duration TPI camshaft kit


Advertised duration: 268 intake/278 exhaust
Duration at .050 in. cam lift: 204 intake/214 exhaust
Gross valve lift: .420 in. intake/.442 exhaust
Lobe separation: 112 degrees

Stuffed in an '86 IROC Camaro with a 305 TPI motor and an ADS Super Chip installed, our TPI cam kit made 40 extra horsepower and knocked almost a full second off the IROC's 0-60 times--and the computer worked perfectly. This kit includes the cam, lifters, springs, retainers, and lube. If your car has more than 30,000 miles, we suggest you add a new timing chain.

What do you think? Thanks

That cam is just a touch larger than a factory TPI cam. My cam out of my 89 was .415/ .430 and roughly the same duration numbers I think.

I went a bit bigger... .495/ .502
