I have an F cam with Edelbrock performer 5.0 heads and no problems... other than the heads don't flow as well as I wish they did.

Its alright, if I had to do it all over again in would have gone with a custom cam from Ed Curtis, but at that time I didn't have much time to wait for one. It sounds really good and pulls way up into the rpms. Theres way better cams out there though.
