confusion on cam

I was told by the previous owner that he out the largest cam you could put in a 5.7l TPI. Well since then I've added 1.6 rockers and some dart iron eagle SS heads. Can I go larger than this current crane cam?

We need specs. Without them, we know nothing. Also with a larger can, the car becomes less streetable.

Re: confusion on cam

If you're still running the traditional TPI LTR setup, I doubt I would go any bigger on the cam IMO. Without intake upgrades it will perform like a turd.
