Default ? for the cam kings

Hey guys.

Please don't shoot me for this cam ?

I'm currently building a burnout car. Need some help and opinions on the camshaft kit.


Ok so the engine is as follows:

Stock bottom end with ARP 2000 connecting rod bolts

Heads are stock 241 heads, besides the exhaust ports being matched ported.

Holley 2x4 Carb manifold, has 2x 600cfm vac secondary holley carbs.

MSD 6010 ignition controller

Turbo 400 and thinking of a 3,000rpm stall (Depending on what the cam needs. Not yet purchased)

1 3/4" 4 into 1 extractors with hi-flow cats straight out the sides of the car, So free flowing



I'm after a camshaft kit that has a very rough idle. Not fussed on fuel econ or anything as its a burnout car. I may take it down the strip once or twice to see what it runs down the quarter. But in reality it's not getting built for that.

Thanks for the help in advance. I would like to purchase a complete kit

I ran a 238/242 for a while in my stock cube 04 gto. I ran a 4, 000 stall behind it.

Your burnout contests down under are completely different than ours lol I love your burnouts!

TSP shipping internationally is really expensive.

I'm not sure who ships internationally without raping you though.

The stock cam should be plenty with TCS off...
