I have this cam in my 355 which hasn't been put in my car yet and I was wondering if it's going to add any power at all or if it's just an average stock cam?

I was just wondering if this cam will make anymore power than the cam that came in the tpi l98 setup. Also dose anyone have any idea what getting rid of the runners and going with the TB setup will do for horsepower? the stock l98 had like 230...I was just trying to get an estimate of what it will do for me. It's probably the same cam that came in it originally.

No I mean TBI. We had the block and heads from the l98 but didn't have any of the wiring and the injectors for the tpi were bad. We're using tbi.

Well if it was tpi I would say go for a zz4 cam 208 221 474 510 112 lobe seperation but I don't know what the limit of TBI is.That cam is stock and I think it has a 115 lobe seperation but I am sure someone will correct me.This should be transfered to the TBI board.

How far do you plan on going with the TBI? The cam you listed is pretty small, but not too bad of choice if you plan on keeping the stock TBI and intake. If you plan on swapping on an intake and modding your TBI (or even going w/ a larger unit), then you are wasting your time with that cam.
