Default NEED CAM HELP ASAP!!! ordering today!

ok... i have decided i am going to go bigger with my cam than i originally decided ... HOW BIG CAN I GO ON MY 408??? i want something lopey as hell but still streetable. my pistons are flycut, HPE 408 zero decked...

the car is a daily driver.. it WILL be running NITROUS.. probably quite a bit. but i will only be spraying nitrous on rare occasions.. for the most part it will be NA but the juice will be sprayed if i need it. (or when im at the track) i need cam opinions REALLY FAST!! the engine is starting to go together and im without a cam and i NEED ONE!! lol

Have you talked to HPE about a cam? I am probably swapping in their S-cam which is a 238/242 .608/.612 lift on 115 lsa this spring. I talked to Scooter at HPE he claimed he put down 467 rwhp w/ ET heads.

and actually... i lied... i did talk to scooter at HPE.. i was going to go with their "super E" cam, ellie designed it its a 244-248 612-615 on a 115 LSA... they put down 479 RWHP through an automatic in ellie's firehawk... its not advertised on their site but it is one of their other grinds.. they use it in their 408's
