I would tell WADE at ARE exactly what your goals are for your car and what exactly you will use it for (strictly race car, weekend warrior with ocassional racing, etc) and look to him for his expert advice and suggestion for a perfectly matched bad *** cam matched with ARE heads you have.
Best of luck,

I'd go with a 232/237 duration cam, with an aggressive lift/ramp and 112 LSA.

How does a solid roller bad boy cam and 10.0 flat e/ts sound to you? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Sounds pretty darn good to me! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
