I like the drivability of the cam i have now alot better .... The 847 doesn't make alot of torque i need torque.... just some things to think about....

I'd run the 847 on a 110.. why not, in a manual car with a decent gear in it, it shouldn't be bad 
. If you want to lug the hell out of your ride, build a stroker .
Mmm.. 115... well Greenbean with a big prob (dropping cylinders.. loses 100hp at 6300, picks up 75, loses 10, picks up 10, & tapers off LOL) went 120 at the Darlington shootout w/ interior and whatnot... and that car with it's problems is only making 411rwhp by 6300. Of course.. those are #'s from a dynojet 248c
.
If you're wanting to try the cam on a 110, go for it.. its not like it's going to make a huge difference IMO.

I would have expected MUCH more than 115 with 450 rwhp, convertible or not. That's James' car with the 'tin shed' heads correct?

Don't get me wrong the 847 makes good power but listen to what people say i wish i did it would have saved me $1000s of dollars....Ask any cam tech if custom grind with your flow#s from your heads would be better than just going with some name brand cam.

As for rest, numbers in sig, race weight = pig (3750-3800?), launch 6k+.
