Whats the best cams for the 92 305 TBI Camaro

Allright guys, I've found out about what I need to make the Edelbrock TBI Manifold function its best. So, now I need a new cam. What is your suggestion, and about how much money does it cost to get it installed. thanks, big tex

lt1 cam seems to be going around as a good suggestion with good results. installation is free if you do it yourself and search here on how to.

I plan on gettting a edlebrock intake, and Im going to get a edlebrock cam, comes as a package. You can purchase them seperately, they just recommend you use them together. Its pretty close to the LT1 cam.

Well at summit racing, its 139.95$ I have not been able to find a LT1 around here. I could try the dealeer, but ya know the prices they charge. Underdog has a spare one for sale. I cant remember how much, but it was a good deal.

the edelbrock packaged cam wont work because it is not a roller cam. Try the Lt1 or a crane compucam roller.
