Agree with the other guys. With 418 cubes, you can go bigger, make more power, and still maintain perfect street manners. I have a 219/231 115lsa cam in an LS3 with those lobes that I really like. With a 418 cubes and my cam, you wouldn't notice the cam was even there. Get Pat G, or someone you trust, to spec you a cam for what you're trying to get done. Those "will fit" cams in the catalogs aren't for big cubes. When you add displacement, it's a whole nother ball game when choosing a cam.
