383 Cam

7D6,

As we were talking in the other thread you have about swapping. It is necessary to know what you want out of your car. What do you want to do with it? Are you looking to tip stop light to stop light? 1/4 or 1/8 mile? Road racing, auto cross? Or figure 8’s down at the local dirt track? Once you figure out which way your going to build / prep your car, you start picking items for that build direction.

You know you asked a super loaded question as to what cam your should run... Everyone here will tell you something different for selection.

This is the info you should post and will be asked by a cam company tech when trying to decide on cam.

Motor - 383 standard, bored, stroked?
Heads- stock, ported, Alloy?
Intake- whatcha got?
RPM Range
Transmission- auto 727,904 or 4 speed?
Axle, gears?
Car weight?
Wheel and tire height?

Torque converter selection will be impacted by your cam selection.

As you can see, cam selection is based on looking at the whole packaged you want and not just a choppy idle sound...
