Lopey Build

Looking to build a 350 making 350-380hp/tq but I want a nice lopey cam, i'd like it to scream at mid range rpms. If I had a video to show what I'm talking about I would but I went to a car show and this guy had a 350 and it just sounded great!

Re: Lopey Build

Those Thumpr cams are just for sound... they don't make very good power. If you want REAL power and a good sound, the Comp Cams XE cams are a better choice. I had an XE274 in my 350 and it was great! Sounded good, ran good, LOTS of power from 2000 and up.

I have a 292H 244 duration, 501 lift. It has a good lopey idle and good power.
