What cam should I get?

JohnnyJet said

XE262 cam will be better in that motor In my opinion. My car has never run better with it and I have a 360
3.23 posi rear
4 speed
J-Heads
edelbrock performer RPM intake
TTI headers
Holley 650 dbl pumper carb

My car was almost undriveable with the purple 284 cam. I believe operating range is most impotartant factor in choosing, but thats just me. Good luck in your choice n Git er done!

Does the idle have a radical sound? Lopey another worlds. The cam shaft in my car just sounds plain after it warms up. I heard a Chevy II today and it sounded good. I wished my ride sounded like that. I don't however want a cam that is to big and thank goodness I've leasoned to the folks on here or I would have already installed the 284. But now it is close to x-mas and my money is going to go else where but when I get by that I'm going to change that sucker out. I might just go ahead and take the cam out and see what size it is and go from there. I will then have a base line to start with. Knowing better where to start.
