MS4 or custom grind????? Cam advice needed.... Guys,
I'm upgrading....have a Trq2 in my 408ci (w/85mm TB and truck intake manifold). Replacing intake w/BBK SSI...using existing TB (85mm) and also considering a cam upgrade. I have patriot ported 243s(milled to 62cc) right now w/ .040 head gaskets (pistons are .010 out of the hole) and everything runs great.....however, ....
I want to free up some of the 408s power w/ the intake swap.....and have been consulted to increase the cam.....what cam will give me the best bump in power with this new setup???? MS4 or something similiar? Or should I get a custom grind w/ IC that is similiar to Trq2 so I don't decrease PTV clearance...but with more lift?...

the MS4 would be great to use, but if you want to take the 408 to its full potential I would go with the texas giant from TSP, that would bring it more alive and it has the higher lift you would want, with that cam though just check your PTV very close.
