There is a lot of info needed for this. What driving do you do? What power range do you want? How lopey do you want it? What power are you aiming for? etc. Tell us everything and we can give you a better answer

Cam

this is my only car so i drive it everyday. I dont car too much about gas.
as far as the lop, I love the sound of a cam, but I dont want a car that bark is worse than its bite. It is a six speed and will get tuned with thunder racing. I dont plan on getting heads. so I want the most i can get with the set up i have. Borls,LTs, ORY, 150 wet shot. I will love to hit the 400s hp range.

any cam, 150 is a small shot, and its not going to make much of a difference at all in which cam. You should concentrate on the power you will be making n/a, as 95% of the time, you will not be spraying.

Like I said. I loved the X1 and Y1 cams. I don`t know much about the R1. I made good power with the X1, got 25-35 more with Y1. Just had to flycut with Y1

Predator Z has the right idea, in a nitrous or forced induction situation you want to scavange as much exhaust as possible. Large intake duration is not quite as necessary as exhaust duration. A little bit of advance helps also because it opens the intake valve sooner to suck up more air/nitro mix into the combustion chamber.

236/236

would a 236/236 .602/.602 114+2 be a good cam for my set up or is that too big, just right, or tweeking with the spec. Give me your input

AND REMEMBER, I HAVE STOCK HEADS AND GEARS AND DONT PLAN ON CHANGING THEM.

no, maybe 232/236, you want the exhaust to be larger than the intake
