I was thinking of having them grind me a smallblock version od the L78/l72 cam
316/316 - 242/242 on a 112
Or go with a 112LSA Lt1 cam 316/336 - 242/254
Or do you think messing with or trying to redesign GM cams is a bad idea?

No need to be to technical. Put the 140 cam in with a set of gears or even the stock cam will do. Small blocks with high rev cams need gears or your defeating your purpose. Have the carb done and the distributor done along with a good exhaust and you will run great. Hopefully you have the forged pistons in that motor too, or your "old school" sound will not be there. Its all about the combo. Good luck!
Ask (67 Nova Boy Dave) what Comp Cams he is using in his 302. That car sounds great!
