Default Quick Help???!!!???

Okay, Here's my situation, i need to know what i can handle? I got an M6, with hardened 7.4 pushrods. What cam can i take for this. I want a hard idle that will still run and that my stock internals can handle. I gotta find out within the day though, cause i'm approved for a cam, jsut need to know what i can handle. Thanks and remember, love the rough sound with good power band

Unless you get aftermarket valvesprings, forget about the cam. If you do get springs, you can pretty much go anywhere from a baby 218 cam all teh way to the MS4 or Trex. It depends on how well mannered you want the car to drive. Bigger cam = more power = poor drivability. Search. 224 is the defacto starter cam, although I liked teh f13 cam when I had mine.

As mentioned, you'll need valvesprings. There are quite a few cams to choose from that will provide a great sound and power. It just depends on how big or small you want to go. There's the 224 that's on the smaller side or the MS4 that get's pretty aggressive. We also have some mid-range cams like the Torquer v2 and v3. What bolt-ons do you have right now?
