cam?
im tryin to figure out where the line of streetable and race only is for my stroker set up and i need some help. im having it custom ground but i dont want to say wat our goal is and have them grind a cam that i cant drive with. so wat specs do you guys think are the biggest i could go and still street drive with a 6 speed?

call AI or LE, they will set you up well for a cam taylored to your needs, don't waste time trying to get a cam spec'd by comp, they will most likely just stick you with a cookie cutter off the shelf cam
I doubt this is the first time someone wanted a streetable cam for a 383 lol so they should have plenty of experience with it
plus streetable is a very objective term, to some guys a car that simply doesn't boil over is streetable where as some guys a car with any lope isn't streetable

well many cams can do that with the proper supporting mods
I've seen plenty of people DD the gm847 (234/242 .539/.558) with stock heads and cubes. same can be said of the cc306 (230/244 .510/.540). ported heads and cubes will only make that cam more liveable and tame. not telling you to go out and get a GM847 but just giving you a point of reference

If I remember correct your having going with an AI heads/cam package right? I would call up Phil or Ron and basically tell them what your goal is but also that you want to be able to drive it on the street and it not stall out etc. I wouldn't be afraid to tell them everything because they know what they're talking about so Im sure they would take care of you. Alot of the drivability will have to do with the tune as well.
