Default ms4 cam for my 383?

i just bought a ms4 cam for my 383 ls1 with 12.8 compression cnc ported 806 heads victor jr intake 90mm tb. and i plan to put this in my 63 nova. behind a powergilde.
so my question is will this cam work for my application or am i leaving alot of power out of it?

lmk if more info is needed. also if i do go with a differant cam how long does a custom cam take to be made?

I think it will be a good match. You'd be best off getting a custom grind, but I think that those 383 cubes will take that huge cam nicely.

I think your overdoing it with a glide on your car.

Hey what happend to the turbo cam you had in the 383? I will give you $100 but i will pick it up since you might take 4 weeks to ship and not return my email or pm's, And i will have to create a myspace account to post a comment asking where my cam is lol.

Why a a glide? What tire size, gears and power level are you going to be in?

Teen is to young, there is no grass to play ball.

29 inch tire not sure on the gears and a gilde for a little more power to the ground less shifting. but i do have my built 60e. but idk i need to do more research. hoping to get 650+rwhp on nitrous.

Most people on here running glides are making big power 900+ and a good size stall. I would just do a th350 at that power level.
