Cam Ideas

So if I understand correctly you are saying staying with the stock grind might be a better choice in the long run? Doing this would also alleviate the possible need for the Hughes springs & retainers which is nice for the wallet. Did the big cam thing many years ago & while being great for the strip it pretty much sucks on the street so want to keep it on the mild side. BTW - great info!

208 cam isn't a big cam, the only down side I see is the lift magnum heads may not have enough clearance for that high of a lift, I got 380hp crate and from what heard that about the biggest you can go without cutting. which is .501"/.513" If you don't want to do that I go with no more than .513".

Voodoo has this one Advertised Duration (Int/Exh): 258/264; Duration @ .050 (Int/Exh): 207/213; Gross Valve Lift (Int/Exh): .485/.485; LSA/ICL: 112/106; Valve Lash (Int/Exh): Hyd/Hyd; RPM Range: Idle-4800;

Advertised Duration (Int/Exh): 262/270 ;Duration @ .050 (Int/Exh): 211/219 ;Gross Valve Lift (Int/Exh): .507/.515 ;LSA/ICL: 112/106 ;Valve Lash (Int/Exh): Hyd/Hyd ;RPM Range: 1400-5400 ;

I'm guessing .515" would fit
