Degreeing a Cam, or not.....

I don’t know how fussy your track is about enforcing the roll bar rule, but for cars of this vintage, anything quicker than 11.50 is going to require a roll bar to be “legal”.

Everyone loves to blame the cam when the car doesn’t run the number.......... the Comp XS282S, which has specs extremely close to yours has powered many cars(with lesser heads and cubes) well into the 11’s.

The bigger the cam, the less EFI friendly it will be.

Also, the cam and the converter really need to be on the same page if you’re chasing ET’s.........and 3000 stall doesn’t really lend itself as a good match for a “big” cam.
