Cam Selection 360

Those who recommended the 340 cam are leaving a lot of torque out, but it would idle decent and have a broad band. From personal experience with street trucks and tow rigs, a 110*LSA would put you in the torque band quicker and with a higher peak. In my '86 D250 tow rig, I used the 272H-10 Energizer (still available in white box form from several sources, [email protected]"-.454" lift-110*LSA) and it was superb. Another that I have used with great results, using manifolds, is the 265DEH Comp Cams grind (in a 360, 318 use the 255DEH) which gives a good sounding idle and quick torque output with it's 110*LSA. The DEH cams are available as "Specialty Grind" shelf cams, they are just not stocking items in the catalog anymore, probably due to the "Thumpr" series they are pushing now.
