Default This cam still O.K.?

Well, I am doing an M6 swap into my car. As seen in my sig, my cam is a 231/237 592/603 111.5 ...will I still have a good power curve, or will I need to step it down? I know this cam i sfar from "BIG", but as far as power under curve, will it still be a runner? The 3.23s will be going by the way....probably 4.10s for the M6?...

That cam will be fine, especially if you go with the 4.10's.

yeah you can have bigger cams on the street with six speeds than auto so that cam is fine.

Off topic, but what do the M6s run with 4.10s on the highway at say 70MPH? Alot better than an A4 I guess?..
