Paul, he's asking for "what cam" which is about 75% of the threads here.

Grab this from Vengeance: http://vengeanceracing.net/index.php...-kit-plus.html

It has everything you need - new oil pump, good timing chain, Comp Trunion upgrade. It's a great all-in-one package. I'd go with the VRX4 camshaft, 7.425" Pushrods, and Titanium Retainers. You'd be close to 380rwhp with that package given the stalled A4. The cam will work well with your 4000 stall.

Add some AI Ported 5.3s down the line for 1595 w/new Manley valves and new GM 5.3L castings (or port your stock heads for 995 or do the welded chambers for 1145 to get compression up to that of the 5.3s) and reuse the valvesprings in the Vengeance package. Then add a FAST 92 and you'd be at 430-440rwhp.

I think a 228/230 112+4 camshaft with a 218cc ported head with 60cc chambers would make for a very fun street car with the SS4000. It'd be a well engineered package. And one you could do in stages as your budget allows.

Could I add the fast 92/92 doing just that cam you suggested along with the 42lb Injectors? Thanks
