A lot of people do. Most people use a smaller cam, but as long as the tune is right you can get good streetability out of a large cam. I daily mine with a Tick Performance Polluter cam in it and don't have any problems at all.

I daily drive mine, which is in my signature, on the stock tune with no issues. I think with a good tune I wouldn't be afraid to go quite a bit larger.

Yeah depends on how good your tuner is & how great he can tune the cam you choose. I'm running the torquer v.2 232/234 595 598 @112. I daily drive my car with no problem, its my only car so yeah its daily driven.

Yea haha. I open it up gettin on the freeway and such. Haven't made any quarter passes. Waiting to get a set of heads then a good dyno tune. But I haven't had any problems thus far, idles fine, and though I don't know the A/F ratios, it isn't running rich and I sure as hell hope it isn't running lean. I don't necessarily recommend running a cammed car on a stock tune, but I couldn't bring myself to spend the dinero on a dyno tune then turn around and do it again when I get heads and an intake mani.
