OK but acording to my parts catalogues for engine rebuilding the normal mid 80s injection cam is the same as the turbo cam, so you could snag a normal injected cam for cheap.
Somebody may have mentioned 420 lift and yest the roller design
can allow more agressive opening rates, but the more important question is: do you need it at all?
Stock intercooled T-coupe with PE ecu had 195 or 205 bhp and 235 ft/lbs with stock exhaust.
Stomp on the gas full and hold it and it ought to be enough.
