Choosing a Cam for a 5.9 Swap

Choosing a Cam for a 5.9 Swap

This is the cam I’m running in the wife’s car. Though not a Magnum build, it is a .030-360/zero slug deck w/Pro Maxx CNC ported heads. Backed by a 904 & 3.55 on 26” tires and custom 2400 stall Pro Torque converter.

It is an excellent street performer that drives easy and runs really well for a small cam engine. I think your on track duration wise according to your description above.
(Though, IMO, your way small on the carb size & your tire is a bit large @ 28”.)

So I emailed Hughes over a week ago and I have gotten no response whatsoever, I may call them this Friday in case my email got lost but so far no response. I talked to a Comp cams rec and they recommended me a custom grind 224/230 duration @ .50" with .512/.512 lift on a 110 LSA, for the price of 365.98. I wanted to see if any of you guys could give me their opinion on this cam since I still got a ton to learn about these engines and what they like. I told them I was looking for something that had some good low-end torque but also could scream to 6000 if I needed to, sort of in-between extremes. the car is a 1973 duster with a 5.9 swap. it has a 3 speed manual with a 3.23 rear end ratio. the 5.9 is getting EQ heads, LA Eddy dual Plane Air gap with a 570cfm Holley street avenger, maybe some pistons but don't know yet but definitely some increase in compression. 28in tire height. it's just a streetcar

if you guys also have any recommendations for a hydraulic roller long snout from other companies or ones you have already tried please let me know since I'm interested in hearing your opinions and experiences.
Thank you very much and thanks in advance for the responses

This is much better IMO for your gear ratio.
