Re: What cam do you run?

What cam do u currently run? What type of power are you looking to put down? Idle characteristics? Got any idea... I run a hotcam, I have a new Crane CompuCam. Never installed. dont remember the Duration figures, but it provides a .454/.480 lift, if interested let me know.

218/224 @ .050 comp xfi268 passed smog here with no problems, on the stock tune. Most aftermarket cams are going to require at least mild head work and springs to handle the lift.
