Re: Need Help Choosing cam
If you'll be using a single plane manifold like a Vic JR or....

Use Isky cam #201549 Install on a 100 to 102 intake C/L.
Lock the spark timing out 34 to 36deg full time. (no mechanical advance)
Don't forget to hang on.

Your cr is a bit high for pump gas. I would not run it on anything less than 100 octane gas.
you can look up the cam specs yourself.
