Re: Best cam for a stroker,,,

I do have a Lunati but on an M6 look at my sig. 450 rwhp and 447 rwtq with a 230/227. And this cam idles very smooth with no cats, 3" y-pipe, and a hooker cat-back.

Pay a lot of attention to the exhaust! If it flows very well you will be surprised how much you will gain! Also, I am going with a 232/237 because the car is a bit quite for me with the 230/227.

I would say go with a 230/227 or 232/237. Going any bigger would hurt your drivability around town a lot!

Good luck!

Re: Best cam for a stroker,,,

Cam swaps are mainly a preferance of brand. You should go fairly large if you want to reach 480 rwhp, but I think that is an unattanable goal with only a 382 stroker. Many 450-460, but not 480. As for the cam, go big or go home. Without emissions to pass it doesn't really matter what it does for the emission levels. Have fun
