Before I even consider...
OK at the risk of sounding like a dick;
If that cam really is a 272adv, and 216@050
With the stock compression ratio, and the stock TC, and anything less than 3.23s, you couldn't give me that cam.Period.
And here is why.
The 216 says it should be a torquey cam. But the 272 will make it idle like a wanna-be, all the while pissing away Dcr and sucking gas. A Dcr in the 6s will make it about as snappy as a stock teener. You will have to rev it up forever to find the power, and with 2.76s you will almost run outta mph before it really wakes up. And then you will be speeding. Look if it is 272 and 216, then it has about the slowest ramps ever put on a cam; namely 56*. You don't want that cam.
What you do want is a cam that slaps the valves open as fast as possible, holds them open for as long as possible, and then slams them shut, as quickly as possible. That's what you want. Another thing you want is to have the powerband match your transmission. And the most important thing of all is you want to have the cam put the power where you need it to be.
But you can't always have everything you want.A cam as described above would just smash everything to pieces.And if it's not enough power, get a bigger engine.
So compromises have to be made in an effort to keep the valvetrain together.And possibly to cruise the hiway with. Or if the car is a DD or weekend bomber, or a track-only car,etc. Headers or what? Big tires or donuts,etc. Hauling the family, pulling a boat/camper, or going to school, and a bazzillion other things.
So refresh my memory; What are your goals. What rear gears do you have, and what transmission? and what current stall? And it is an A-body right? Have you done a recent compression test and what are the numbers?Or do you know the exact compression ratio, or the current cam specs? What has to stay and how much money are you willing to spend?
Yeah that cam will work, but there are so many other choices out there, I am sure you can find better.
But hey, this is my opinion, so don't flame me.
And if you say that you just want the car to sound mean, well, put that cam in there and see how mean it sounds with an 8/1- 360.
Ok enough dickness,I'm sorry.
But if that cam is something other than;272 and 216, then forget I said anything,lol
