Looking for some advise on a camshaft. It's for a car that my son and I are building, it will be his first car so it's going to be on the mild side. The car is a 85 Z28. I'm going to use my old L98 350. I wanted to get a cam that will increase performance but stay 100% streetable & daily driveable. The car will not need to pass emissions. OK so hear is the engine details, 89 L98 350 out of a 89 Formula, stock bottom, stock heads, edlebrock RPM intake, edlebrock 600 carb with elec choke(1409), headman long tube headers(1 5/8"), with H-pipe to bullet mufflers, corvette stall converter. Any cam advise for this combo would be greatly appreciated. If possibly with still staying streetable my son would like to have a little lopey sound at idle.

 

Here is a pic of the car...

 

If your going with a flat tappet, I would use comp cams 268H, it has a little bit of a lopey idle, but a very good street cam, stock torque converter can be used, and stock accesories wont be affected.

its hyrdaluic.

 

the engine is a 89 L98 1pc rear main roller cam engine. So I am going to need a hyd roller cam.

 

then go on jegs or summit and look at the cams they stock.

most comp cams and crane cams tell you the idle quality, rpm power range, and lobe seperation and what converteres can be used.

finding a mild cam is easy.

both compaines make roller cams.
