DAM,CAM Ok i was going to put the hot cam in but everyone seems to tell me to get a better cam, now i have a 98 z28 i am going to use hooker lts, everything that matters is stock heads ect, what cam is the best for this (stock lifters) i will have better push rods, and i wil change the springs,,
so what cam could i use to give me good power but still be a everyday car, and a cam i could use on a stock set up with stock lifters. if you do have any ideas please tell me were to buy it at i have one week and i am buying a dam cam

Re: DAM,CAM I run a Thunder Racing 220/220 114 duration and it gives great power.Drivability is like stock with a nice torque range.You could probly go 224/224 without any drivability problems.I think both of these cams are better than the Hot cam.

Re: DAM,CAM If price and reliablity are no problem then
yes you can find better setups around.
I chose the hotcam for two reasons.
I did not want to raise stock rev limit.
I needed everything in package to complete
the job ( kit ) thanks pace parts.
I needed reliablity of a known setup.
I have 12K miles on my hotcam kit and have had
no problems.. its a daily driver.
Here are some other setups people use
