Default Yet another thread about cams...
Looking for a good street cam, that makes good power down low...

Specs on my car... already made 341 / 347 with same mods and stock cam.

98
Auto w/ 3600 converter
LS6 Intake / ported TB
Longtubes, no cats, magnaflow
3.73 gear

Looking for a cam that good "under the curve"

I see the track once a week, so i'm looking for a noticable gain... oh, btw, Dyno charts don't mean **** to me...

I'm hitting that now... with my stock cam, I guess with the gear and tire it really helps?

Perhaps. I never tried 3.73 since I ended up going with forced induction.

I still think it's a great cam.

232/232 .590/.600 111 is a good profile for your supporting mods.
