the issue I see is that he lists "Mostly Street" applications. I am not sure a 2.8SS with 8K rpm would be the optimal daily driver.
Having driven one, this is absolutely not true; they are a supremely tractable daily driver on RSR cams. They run very well on 46 PMOs, even better on EFI/MFI.

Why not a 3.0SS (or a 3.1SS for that matter)? That much displacement takes the air requirements into territory the ports and valves have difficulty supporting at 8000 RPM. At lower revs it is fine, but if you aren't going to spin it, why build it?
