ok since i got no replies i made a bunch of calls and everyone seems to be in the same ballpark lift and duration wise, but from 110-114 on the lsa...
anyone have a manufacturer that seems to work best? i called
ultradyne
eps
cammotion

EPS has got some real good reviews.
There are guys going mid to low 11's on 220-ish duration cams. Something seems "off" in your combo to be going high 11's with a 260.

it was an old 23* headed motor, the heads looked like steevie wonder ported them with one hand,and i had less than 300 bucks into the motor from intake to pan lol. the duration was huge, but i think it crutched the horrorible heads lol.
that motor shouldnt have gone faster than 13's probably.

I am interested in your findings. Seems everyone building carbed setups uses off the shelf or used cams to keep in a budget. There is not a lot of information on "carb" cams out there for LS stuff.
From what I have read looks like a wider split is favoured by the vic intake but i cant confirm anything. Let us know what you end up going with if the cam builder allows the information out.

i am waiting on my recomendation from patrick g. every manufacturer was too all over the place from the next one for me to make a good call as to what would be best...
comp told me a cam that was 113+4...and 621 624 lift. really? in a cam only carb app that i said i wont flycut for?
hopefully patrick can set me straight with this...
