Default Done searchin...help with my Cam

I have looked for someone with my same combo...not exactly but close...for a cam decision help.

Also checked Campbells page up & down...no luck <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Mods: 3.73's..MAC's with ORP and 4" Mufflex catback...Vig3200...BFG DR's...home ported TB and MAF...modified lid...!MAF screen...HPP3.

I have run a best of 12.65@108 with 1.87 60's with the old TCI verter. No new times on the Vig3200. Expectin a low 12.6..maybe a <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> 12.5

My car weighs in at 3599 with me in it. I'd like to keep it full interior.

I wouldnt mind shavin a few pounds off it but my final goal is to run a low 12...by that I mean 12.0-12.3.....

Is this realistic or do I need more than just a cam.

Thanx guys...I can always count on good help from this site..hopefully I will get some this time too <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Later, Stu

1. Do you drive this car daily, or is it a toy?
2. Do you need to pass emissions testing once per year?

Tony, I do drive it daily but I dont worry about lope or manners too much. I do have to go thru emmissions once every two years.

Could some of you cam guys give me some insight. I just don't want to go through the same thing I did with my converter. Trial & error doesnt sound fun with a cam swap. I'll be doin it myself so the first time would be nice if it was the last time.
