Question Which cam?? for 3.73 and 3000 stall?

I bought TCI 3000 and will install 3.73. The car is for daily driver and street racing. I am confusing which cam should chose to get most power and still getting the drivability…

cc305 or little more aggressive like 230/236 112*would be sweet!

Look for something for which the manufacturer claims that the powerband starts around 2000 and ends around 6500, give or take a few hundred on either end.

I have the LT4 Hot Cam (like it a lot), w/ 1.6 RRs, 3.73s and Vigilante 9.5" 3200. Also, 26" MT 10.5 ET streets, Kooks and PCMforLess tune. Everything works really well together (cam, gears & stall) and I've been running 12.40s @ 110+. I believe the car with this combination has 12.10 potential, once I improve the launch and 60 ft times.

I don't think you can go wrong with the Hot Cam along with the 3.73s and 3000 stall!

I found this Hot Cam with 1.6 RR only $250. So it will not be wrong choice if I buy it !!

HotCam isn't bad, but I had really good luck with my XE 224/230 grind until my car bent a pushrod Saturday..
