Default 382 update: New cam is in!!

I don't know if anyone was following my thread from a few months ago, but my new cam is in!!

382 engines... a few questions

just picked up my car from Raging Motorsports with the 236/232 112lsa .602/.585.
It sounds a hell of a lot meaner than before but it's not over the edge. It sill idles nicely at about 850rpm when it warms up. old cam was 224/224 .539 114 lsa

SOTP it pulls like hell in 3rd and 4th. the 315's don't stand a chance in 1st gear. I definately picked up a little power, but we'll tune it at the dyno here shortly and find out.

Time to get a new hood sticker
I'll hit the track wednesday with the street tires just for fun. not looking for anything impressive....

Thanks Mark!!!

any dyno guesses??

I'm gonna do some more testing. Next I'd like to do stepped headers with some true duals.
Then it'll be new GTP heads and then a solid roller cam.
