Ok, I did some research into the ITR and CTR cams. I searched around and read a bunch of stuff online and I referred to some books I have from Cartech.

It seems like with the cams, cam gears and proper timing adjustments I can make around 10HP Power Gain Article

Then I read about the installation Install Instructions but there is still one more thing that I haven't been able to find yet, the valve lash setting to use with an ITR cam. I figure since the lobes are slightly larger I would need to increase the lash slightly? And if so, but by how much?

Thanks in advance
