Have you driven it around at all? That's a really big cam , what springs did you go with? Motor looks good in there!

Yep, had a turbo.  I like the response and snappy nature of N/A better.  It's more fun to drive IMO.
I'm running the CB VW650 springs.....it's at about .600" lift right now.  Cam actually is a but rough off idle, but it smoothes out real fast, lots of bottom end tq.
