Cam suggestions - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards

I just purchased a 84 z28 H.O. (L69) T-5, 3.73's all that fun stuff. I'm getting ready to purchase a holly 600cfm carb, and currently own a Edelbrock peformer rpm intake (borrowing it from my built 350). Was wondering what would be a good cam for this combo, keep in mind this is my ever day car. I'm not really looking for anything that will require chip burnt either due to I have no clue who would do that type of work around here (Huntington, WV), I figure i'll run the 305 to death before swappin the 350 in seeing as how the 305 has 96k on it. Any suggestions?

go big or go home... like 108 lsa .520 lift 250+ duration 050 with mechanical rollers...

Uh yea, but in a more reasonable suggestion...

Try the compxe 256, it's a winner in a 305. Since you have the L69, with the slightly better exhaust, and you have a better intake manifold, 5 speed, and 3.73 gears, there isn't much holding you back from having some real fun. I think a compxe262 would be quite nice - and still very driveable (daily).

Or the NX262H (comp nitrous HP) http://store.summitracing.com/partde...4&autoview=sku is a great cam off the spray, and if you decide you want more power you can add a nitrous kit and maximize the numbers too.
