just need to know what cam makes the most power (thats a rather general question),
with a semi big ci. motor with nos?(how big, how much gas)
its just going to be a strip only car,so it will not be driven on the street.please help by friday.

A few important questions.

What kind of bottom end? i.e.
What CR?
What rods/pistons
What crank?

What kind of induction
What heads?
What intake?
What TB?

What kind of drivetrain?
M6, A4 or A3
What clutch or what converter?
What kind of rear?
What gear?
