Default lq9 and what cam

in the process of helping with a Lq9 swap. the motors out and figure it best we do a cam.

the car will have a 2500-2800 stall. i know its not much but this is a budget build and not really looking to break the bank.

looking for a good cam on motor but will pull like crazy on a 150 shot. but will work with the stall.

current mods on motor

long tubes
ory
lid
ported throttle body
ported 241 heads
stock Lq9 pistons and rods.

You're probably close to 11.0:1 compression....I'd try the EPS 234/246
with dual valvesprings. Give Geoff a call he may try to widen the lsa
since I know 150 really means eventually 300...ha ha
