[cadillac512]

I'm putting together a .030" over Merc ( with a stock Merc 4" crank) for my '41 Town Sedan. I'll mill a set of stock iron heads to get proper piston to head clearance of approx .040" and have converted a Chevy distributor to Flathead specs for centrifugal advance and added an adjustable vacuum can for light throttle cruise. I have a four bolt Merc intake and both a small pattern Rochester 2G carb and an Autolite 2100 two barrel with 1.02 venturii. (and an adapter to fit the Autolite). I'll see which carb I like best. I have the required bell and starter plate to bolt the later engine up, and have the belt routing handled.

My main question: I have both an 8CM and an EAB cam, and can't decide which to use. Both are in perfect condition and the reviews are good on here for both...so what to do?? Opinions please,especially if you've experienced these two cams.

Thanks in advance to all who share knowledge here-it's such a great resource!
