Rebuilding the motor on my 65 Cuda any suggestions on a cam i want to keep it as close to stock as possible but want it to sound good.

Thanks Ken

Check out my engine build thread. The link is just below. The E4 Isky is a great stock replacement cam. Tmm

Did you get the standard muffler or splurge for the magnum one?
Thanks!

I rebuilt a 273 several years ago and used the Isky E4 too. It was almost a perfect replacement. I used some TRW +.020 10.5:1 pistons available from JC Whitney at the time along with the E4 and the result was even slightly more powerful than the original but still behaved very much like stock.
