Hey guys like the title says i need help in deciding cam choice for my combo. My car is a 88 350ci with Holley Stealthram, and I'm leaning towards the Dart Pro-1's, but for the cam I am not sure, just wanted to mention it here so everything match's up, and I am looking for 300-350 rwhp. I was alos looking at the new Lunati "Voodoo" cam which looks promising 227 int. 233 exh. duration with .489 int .504 exh lift. Any advice or any comments is greatly appreciated. Thanks for the help guys

Lift seems quite low. What is the LSA and advance on that broomstick?

Yeah I got the specs off of my summit mag and not sure where the hell i put it now but i think the power band range wasa 1800-6200 rpm, which is why i concidered it b/c thats exactly where i want to make my power. But other than that what are your opinions on the stealthram with those heads and that cam, but like you said maybe a little HIGHER lift

what are the flow numbers for those heads, that would help in trying to figure out a cam. Also your gear ratio, if your a auto what size stall, would be very helpfull.

The Dart Pro 1 heads can handle .600 lift if you order them correctly. Take advantage of the lift as it will be "free" horsepower compared to a lesser cam. With the combination you are looking at I would expect 400 HP at the motor if not more. I would look at the Comp Cams XFI series. You can order a 224/230 cam as the lobes are in the catalog.

you wont be able to go very big on a cam till you get a stall in there, that or driving the car around will SUCK.
