Gimme your cam opinions for 273 ASAP

I phoned a local speed shop here, his recommendation as far as comp cams and going hydraulic is to go with comp cams XE268H. Dad and I dont really know which way to go??? Stick with the solids or go hydraulic??:banghead:

I think that would be a little big. Remember, hydraulics that are similar in grind to solids are always "bigger" by virtue of the valve lash on a solid helping to lose about 10* of cam timing. Again, it sounds like the little 268 solid would be perfect. Why are you beatin your head against the wall? The decision isn't difficult. Simply use a little solid cam like the engine came with and it will run great. The 268S is light years away from the original grind and will be a big improvement too.
