Default need Drag cam for 383 stroker

my puny 236/232 .602 112lsa has to go. my car has turned into a 95% drag racing car instead of the daily driver it was a year or two ago....

I want a good NA and N20 cam if that is possible, plan on running a DP to get into the 9's but want 10.50's or better NA also, which actually I am pretty sure I can get out of my current setup. I just don't want this reverse split for N20 and am sure I can do better with a bigger cam NA.

currently have a 90mm LSX, RMS heads, 11.0:1 compression, 1 3/4 dynatechs running a 10" extension at the track.
also want to push over 500rwhp... should be about 495 now, but no new dyno numbers with the 90mm lsx.

thinking of a TRex size range but about 6 degrees more duration for the extra cubes, but am obviously looking for suggestions


about 2 months ago I put down 485rwhp/475rwtq with a 78mm LSX
ran a 10.94 w/ 1.54 60' in 2500 da last week, only got one good run and tq arm mount broke
and car has gone 10.83 w/ a 1.60 60' w/ LS6 intake in 1000 DA.

The T-rex size range will be about right, but I wouldn't use that particular cam due to it being designed around stock heads. Adding another 6 degrees to it might be getting a little big for a 382. I'd also say call Futral. They can get you a nice stick cut.

That 1 CI makes all the diffrence. I'd be listening to Futral. They've been doing some good things here latley. AP engineering is also good to deal with, but I think the cam this guy is talking about was for there 408 motors.

Lightbulb Depending upon the cylinder head stall point

1. 260-265+ intake @.50 with 275-283'ish @.50 exhaust with around .700+ both sides lift on a 110 lobe. You can figure out where to install it at.

thats on a solid roller. most that you were refering to hydr. not bad, but you realy need a cam that big? Most old schools over cam them. ls1 works fine with regular size cam. i got a 383 on a smaller cam.
