Without knowing what heads, stock or ported, compression ratio, I think you may be expecting too much performance from the 041 cam. The changes you want to make to move power around is probably only going to give less power everywhere. The 041 cam is not the cam to look at those drag race charts about moving the ICL to change the power band rpm. If you are not going to degree it, install it dot to dot.

Using 1.65 ratio rockers to add more lift is a good way to increase power, especially with the small lift the 041 has. Then you will need to check the roller tip pattern on your valves and purchase the proper length pushrods.

As mentioned in your other thread with the same title, I use the 041 cam, but it down on power compared to my old cam that had less duration and more lift.
