I'd guess 5-10 over the HO with all things equal.
Another 5-15 with a long tube header.
I use an 87 Renix cam in mine.
Not because I knew it was "better" but rather because I had it NOS from a warranty repair that didn't require it when I did the repair. It was a special order for an extended warranty job I was doing. When I pulled the lifters on the job, the cam was good. I tried to send it back, but the parts dept wouldn't accept it. So I kept it, 11 years later i got a warranty pull shortblock and built it with my parts stash of non used and used warranty parts.
   I got to have one of the freeist 4.0L's ever putin a Rambler!
