Cam talk - good performance AND driveability
Best advice in the thread. Since you already have 243 heads, you only needed a 219-223 LSL intake lobe to get to 400rwhp. But since you went big with a 230 intake lobe, you'll be way over 400rwhp, but alas, without the sweet, stock-like street manners. With a good tune the drivabilty of your 230/238 cam will be acceptable. It's just a bigger cam than I would have recommended.
I ran across this link lastnight. Hope this helps, its pretty informative.

I think you made a great choice. A 230/238 isn't small by any means, but it's not some big *** donkey dick cam that's going to cause your car to fall all over itself in the lower RPM's. Plus, it will have a nice lope to it.
