Re: Tired of HOT CAM, what cam now?

Also, I will be spraying the car around a 150 shot, which of these cams would do best on the bottle. NA, is my main concern but if the NA performance is going to be close I might as well get the one that would perform best on the bottle.

Re: Tired of HOT CAM, what cam now?

I've got the 236/242 cam on a 114LSA in my 383 and I love it. Even with only 3.42 gears. I think its very streetable even with the Street twin. The power doesnt come in until about 2000-2500rpms; but when it does, stand the f#$% by! Not sure how it does on the bottle. Wife says I cant fill the bottle till I get the car painted

It has been my understanding that the LE3 is pretty well unstreetable in a 350. I also can't get any of the cams from lloyd unless he ports my heads, and he isn't taking any new jobs for a while so that gets rid of that idea.

I have the Comp XE 230/236. With a good tune, it's entirely streetable. I wouldn't hesitate to use it in a daily driver.

It's only a couple of months, why not wait and get the whole package at once? Alot less work. I know the point of wanting it NOW but it's only 6 months max....
