Custom Grind Cam selection help or off shelf cam? need help selectiing a cam!!!!!
Doing a 6.0 swap in my chevelle but cant decide on a cam..
its 370ci now
ported and milled 317s with platinum btr springs
ported victor jr
4150 accufab tb
hooker long tubes
plan on running 250-300 shot through a fogger
I was thinking of doing an MS3 cam or something similar but didnt know if a custom grind would be a better option
OPEN to opinion on any cams .. thank you for the help

Almost all shelf cams are designed for a conventional LS style plastic manifold. The Victor requires a different set of valve events to work well.
However, EPS has a shelf-cam for single plane intake manifolds. It's a 236/248 .615" 108 LSA. In a 370, that would probably work pretty well.
EPS states:
This cam is designed to give a broad powerband with lots of midrange torque when used in conjunction with a single plane 4 barrel type intake manifold. Most cams designed to work with stock type intake manifolds have really poor torque characteristics when used with a single plane intake. This cam will have a very strong power band in comparison to most other 'stock intake' cams when used with a single plane intake manifold.
2200 to 7000 RPM Operating Range.
