Is this cam too much?
I have a opportunity to get a comp cam 242/250 .612/.612 114 at a decent price. I want a cam that will be real rough @ idle but still streetable.
Stock bottom end
Current mods in sig...
Future mods:
Intake (most likely a FAST 102)
T/B will match intake, we will call it a NW 102 for now
Appropriate Springs and pushrods to the cams specs
Timing chain
LS6 or Meling oil pump
4.10 gears
Tune
Suspension
Tire
Stock heads for now, however I plan on getting some eventually.
I plan on using the stock rear end (aside from a gear) and tranny until they go KABOOM, then I will upgrade from there.
I am leaning towards a 3600 stall...but do you think I will need to go up to a 4000?
Do you think this cam is too much? Do you think a 11.x time and mid 4's rwhp is out of the question as well?
What do you think...opinions please....thanks

Wayyy to big. Get all bolt-ons and stall before doing the cam swap. You will see way better gains. No reason to do it backwards IMO. I would say get a 3600ish stall and a high 220's cam or low 230's cam after you get full bolt-ons aquired.
