Default Good/cheap Cam package

I am looking for the cheapest Cam package that still has good quality. Im not looking for anything too crazy as you can see I said cheap. But I am wanting that to be my next mod. Do you guys have any good ideas? thanks

TSP or the 'for sale' section on this site are going to be your best bet...

just an idea .... an edelbrock or patriot cam with comp 918 springs and hardened pushrods (don`t know where is the cheapest good ones) .... maybe you can use the ls6 springs with the edelbrock cams for less price?

edl-2215 is 220 int 224 ext @50 510 510 111 lsa says 10" vacuum @ 1000 rpm!
edl-2216 is 230 int 237 ext @50 540 540 110 lsa says 12" vacuum @ 1000 rpm!
saw them in summit magazine and site.

edelbrock is $299.95
patriots 226 int 226 ext @50 585 585 112 lsa $279.50 @ their site
you said chaepest not best (although this is not a package!sorry)

but as Tainted said the tsp cam package is Great!
