Well I didn't break 400 but I would have if I had a UD pulley or didn't have a K&N which I wasn't aware that it lost power, or if I would have farted in the intake, or put more air in the back tires, etc. Its a great cam though I'm going to make a thread tommorow night when I get my dyno sheet scanned. I got a dyno video but its so loud in there its just really distorted. Its in my videos on youtube.

i know my car is going to be hella loud on the inside!Well I didn't break 400 but I would have if I had a UD pulley or didn't have a K&N which I wasn't aware that it lost power, or if I would have farted in the intake, or put more air in the back tires, etc. Its a great cam though I'm going to make a thread tommorow night when I get my dyno sheet scanned.

My cam is a 230/232 .612/.595 111+3 (i can't remember the exact advance but i think its +3)

As soon as he spec'd this cam for me i knew it was the one. It was right in the range i wanted. Remember you don't want to spin the motor to high. If you DD the car it won't feel powerful because you'll always be out of powerband.

It was a dynojet.
I ended up making 397 whp and 377 trq. It makes 350 + ft lbs from 3500 to 6000 but what surprised me is how it holds power after peak. I don't see why you would need a bigger cam unless your trying to rev past 6750. The only reason I'm disapointed is because I wanted to break 400 but I understand why I didn't, I could put a UD pulley and a paper filter on it and probably make up in the 410-420 range. But it pulls great from bottom to top its not peaky at all. I'll post a thread up tonight in the dyno section and you guys can see what I'm talking about and give your thoughts.
