What cam can I get on a 110 lsa that'll have a good powerband up to 6000rpm?

I've probably read every cam post on this board and everyone has a different opinion.

Like the title says, what cam can I get on a 110 lsa that'll have an even powerband up to around 6000rpm given my current setup? I don't want a peaky cam and I want the engine to last. Driveability is not that important and this is a weekend driver.

Any input? I'm realy lost here after reading all the cam threads.

Wouldn't a wider LSA give you a powerband more to what you're looking for? Try one of the smaller xfi grinds with some Comp 26918 springs, or a custom grind as stated above.

You can call the cam manufacturer and they can grind the cam on whatever LSA you want.

You're going to get all the same different opinions in this thread like you have already seen. Talk to someone reputable and get a custom grind.

Why did you pick a 110* LSA? Generally, that moves the power band higher in the RPM range, makes it less "street" friendly, and gives you problems with low vacuum at idle.

That's what I was saying. He wants a "even powerband" and doesn't want a "peaky cam", but that's exactly what he's asking for. Need to do more research, IMO.
