road car cam for my 318

Just remember no matter what you choose, there's always something left on the table, so don't run yourself crazy over it.

^^^ this.

cam selection is always a compromise, you just have to decide where, how and what you want to compromise.

the duality of a low comp motor and relatively low rpm operation means that the "wrong" choice won't have far reaching implications like, say leaving 50hp on the table. but the "right" cam will make that little motor shine like a crazy diamond.
