Nice deal, bro. I would have gone with a 110 LSA for strictly NA, but I like it choppy and nasty

I predict that you'll love this cam and since you have a decent amount of displacement, the cam won't even seem that big at all

Did I meet you 4-5 years ago? Jesus... I can't remember that at all, bro. Who were you with or what were you doing here?

Re: What Cam with NA 383?

I'm running a high 24x/25x-.650" lift solid roller in my WS.6. It is a 383 and has AFR 220 heads. I'm happy with it and the car makes great power but I don't and wouldn't drive it on the street every day. Especially w/ a solid roller, the valvetrain noise, fuel economy, and to a lesser extent maintenance are a little too much IMHO. A nice hydraulic in the high 23x/24x range would make good power and be streetable in a 383.

Re: What Cam with NA 383?

Mike,
Your top end and my top end are waaaay different, bud. You'll have to take a ride in my car to see what I mean.

Slow is a matter of perspective I guess. That is why I used the Callies/Oliver/JE setup, so that when it starts to feel slow, I put the N2O on!
