288 / 272 cams does seam mild for that power, but I guess if you have the revs...
Not so hard to make the power if you rev it that high, and you don't get valve bounce or anything.
I guess the money comes into it when it breaks, and you try to rebuild it strong.

Would you consider going to 304 cams? Reasoning behind the 288 / 272 cams? Valve spring seat pressure?
