Cam suggestion (patrick G, Predator Help please)

If you don't need a split at all, go with a 226° or 228° straight cam on a 110° +2°.

The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time

Spring life on the new Patriot Gold Extreme springs should be a lot better than 10K miles. I wouldn't even bother checking untill 20K. If you are still uncomfortable, get one of the similar XE-R cams and use the Patriot Gold springs.

I would keep it on a XE-R exhaust lobe, like this:
227/232, .639/.595 110+2 LSA

Best of both worlds involves flycutting to clear the cam with the VE's you want, then getting the gasket that gives the quench you want, then getting the combustion chamber the size required for the DCR you want when it is all said and done.


sorry my mistake.
