You have a high milage Fbody with a kid on the way and are thinking about camming the car when you have a newborn and you're on a budget?

PM any of the reputable cam selectors, Ed curtis, Predator-Z, PatrickG, or Andrew at complete street.

Predator-Z speced mine, and I'm very happy with the custom CompCams grind.

Just make sure you give honest answers to whoever specs you a cam; you'll be happier with the cam grind if you do.
