What would be the best cam for a 382 All Bore??? Thanks for the invite NineBall!!!
I have decided to go ahead and do a 382 All bore. I got everything sorted out as who is going to build me the engine, I just need some input in what cam to go with.
I am going to have a Vigilante 3600 stall converter, Strange 12 bolt with 3.73's, LS6 intake, try to reduce as much weight as possible, going to spray 150-200 shot of spray, and I am going to have a fully built tranny.
I figure on spinning the engine up to about 6500-6700.
Anyone got any suggestions???

Re: What would be the best cam for a 382 All Bore??? NineBall had the T1 221 221 cam in his all bore and changed it to a 23x 23x cam...he has the info you need.

Re: What would be the best cam for a 382 All Bore??? My T1 cam idled like stock in this motor. Perfect for a sleeper package, but I know that isn't what you are interested in Carlos. The 232/232 574/574 112 cam I have now is probably worth about 10 rwhp over my old cam, but it is definitely audible now. For your nitrous application, I'd have to recommend the R1 cam
232/237 on a 114. Pick any lift you want, but keep it less than 0.600 in my opinion.
