yeah wasn't implying anything negative about the cam, just more curious about the terminology back in the day. i drove my GTO in the 90's as a teenager and had a crane fireball, ran great. but was never sure what the older guys meant by a "3/4" cam and yours sounds like a step up from what I ran (216 @ .050).
