cam thoughts

All good input here and there are a ton of things to do or can be done to even a most basic 318 2V car, but I thought the 1st post was not much $$, and gonna replace the tired engine anyway?

My thought is kinda along Adam & others in the line of thinking, get a fast action short duration stick with lifters, do this at a buget price. I can not see changing the intake, carb, springs etc when your gonna change the engine in the near future? Not sure how far down the road, but I have been there myself and maybe it is wise to save the bigger bucks for what you really want?

" What do you guys suggest as a cam, i havnt looked into it, i know i did earlier in the summer time. The motor is a lil tired 69 318 2bbl auto with the 7 1/4 rear end.The thing wont even do a burnout well it has new tires. I was looking for a good cam for maybe a lil more power, and im not planning on rebuilding it since it will get a 340 down the road."

But if you want to put a few $$s in it then the crew all are on target and have some good input to put a little zip in the ol 318!

Just trying to help focus on the $$ aspect of a tired engine is all// anyway my 2 cents..
