Stealth Cam advice
Stealth Cam advice So I am looking for a cam that has very little chop. I want to daily drive the car and not worry about being bugged. I live in California after all.
What do you guys recommend ?
And who should I have grind the cam? EPS ?
The car is all stock right now but I will be putting on some AFR heads in a couple of months.
Thanks

Small cam in the teens with high lift (to take advantage of the soon-to-be AFR heads) will sound and drive pretty easy. Add in some soft EPS lobes and noone will notice for the most part.
Are they the top cam guys right now ?
lobe profiles that are ground by Comp Cams. These like many are stout and
aggressive yet most report great valvetrain stability and quiet operation. I
run a very similar cam to this one here.....

Mine has a bit wider lobe separation which has a completely stock idle and
would pass emissions for you in CA
Something like the EPS 214/232 117 or one of the TR grinds (which Geoff did) would work. Most of them are in the 215/230 117 range.
The EPS 214/232 is a shelf part and has the EPS lobes.

Tick Performance: 218/230 117+2 cam that use the Comp Cams LXL lobes.

Cam Motion: 218/228 116+4 #C33-697, it's listed as a blower cam, but it should also work good for your application.
Crane Cams: 216/224 115, you have a choice of 2 different lifts.

IMO, If you're going with AFR heads you won't need as much split. I think a 219/226 116+3 with LSL intake and LXL exhaust lobes will work good for you. It'll have -9.5* overlap so smog won't be a problem, and it should have a fairly smooth idle, an make some good power with the AFR heads.

I can even do a custom 221/225 .609"/.612" 116+2 which would work very well also. That or 221/226 .609"/.605" 116+2 would work very well too.
