Cam Recommendation 408 I have a 408 I'm moving from a mud truck to my Fbody. Gonna change some parts before putting it in. Currently has a 235/243 .621/.624 112+4 on Comp LSL Lobes.
408 is 10.5:1 Compression, has PRC 247cc heads, and a ported FAST 102.
I'd like to keep my Yank SS 3600, may try and trade for a SS 4000 or have it restalled by Yank.

I've considered just keeping the cam that's in it. But that was specced for 6500lb lifted truck with a stick and 4.88s. So I'm willing to spend a little money to get the cam right for the setup going into the car if it means it'll pick up 15-20hp up top. I like the looks of that Pat G cam, I'm gonna look into it more. Thanks!

Truck never went on a dyno with the 408, but Texas Speed when they built the long block said it should make 580-600hp crank. I figure in my Trans Am it'll make high 400s at the tires. Which seems pretty low for a 408 by modern standards, but it's only 10.5:1, and I'll just boost it down the road.
