Camshaft suggestions

I suggested the Comp xe262H/XE268H or the Voodoo 02-03 (262/268) camshafts. DEFINITELY, not that other guy... LOL The nice thing about the comp grinds is they recommend a single spring and are easy on the factory rockers (no crazy open pressures). The DEH line from comp has some good choices, crower Compu-pro/hiperf compu-pro... there are a ton of decent grinds out there and you don't have to go small. Stick with something about 220-230 @ .050 and 450-500 lift I'd prefer a 108 LSA but a 110 would be ok too. Simple and it will run fine if installed on an adequate centerline (102-104)

There are people that will argue theory until blue in the face. The reason this went off track was Lead69 mentioned he put an XE274H in a similar build and it ran well. Others think that's too big and a 204 cam would be better. Not if "POWER" which was also in the original post was desired. Drive ability was also in the first post which comes down to TUNING. Some people can get things to work that others say no chance. I takes work to get stuff to play well together sometimes, isn't any magic wand that solves things. :)

Everything is a trade off on these deals unless you are working with computer controlled current tech stuff. You want more HP, there is a trade off somewhere else in the spectrum. Especially, if you want to run a carb. I want 1000hp, a smooth idle, 40+ mpg, 9.0-150mph 1/4 and all current emission standards met for $50... good luck.
