Largest cam for 9:1 350?

What is the largest cam you can run on a 9:1 350 without giving
up all your bottom end torque?Can I run the Comp Cams XE274
(.487 lift 230@50 int,.490 lift 236@50 exh).Anyone running 12`s
with the Comp Cams XE268?

I would call CompCams and get some expert advice from them.....Tell them exactly what you motor has, and what you want it to do...and they'll hook you up....good luck

The 268 has good low end torque and is a good street cam that will still rev to 6000. I can run 13.5 without the best traction with the 268. I have 10.3 to 1 comp though.
