Default 79 Cams installed in later 2V

Anyone actually dynoed a difference in HP swapping cams into a 1982 L jet 2V?
Is it worth the trouble?

I think you would notice with that kind of difference. I think it would be worth it.

I think the lift is the same as the normal US cams, but the duration is close to the euro cams. certainly would be worth it
