Default which cam?

I want a cam that makes loads of power like the f13 cam, but also good for a 100 shot too? Any suggestions or will the f13 be fine?

How much go gas do you use? If its on spray often I would look into a cam with more exhaust lift/duration than intake.

Your F13 will better than fine I think it will be GREAT, you have to remember Allan Futral 99 SS (his car) runs a BIG shot 250 or 300 but it is a built forged bottom end and I wouldnt try to run more than a 150 on my car if I was going to run nitrous. On wet kits I would also buy a direct port kit also because the fuel will puddle up in the intake and backfire, I know from experience LOL. As far as lift and duration go the exra duration on the exhaust side will play itself out I think.
