Cam Help I'm looking for a mild cam to put in my daily driver. I want the choppy idle and I think that I a going to go with the T Rex cam.
Can anybody tell me what specs would be the best for a daily driver set up?
Also i need to know a good place for a tune.

Go MS3, best idle with good power and reliability. T-REX will give you most likely all kinds of idle issues, it's way too big for stock cubes IMO.
OR you can hit up someone like Predator and have them spec you a custom cam, but I assure you although their recommendation will be great for torque and power, it will not be a slobbering pig / bad idling / gas consuming for no reason cam like the T-REX you've already chosen for yourself.

T-rex is not anything near a mild cam. Infact, some will argue it's even overkill for some strokers.
