if you're going to spend that kind of money to get a 418 why on earth would you use an off the shelf cam designed for STOCK heads and displacement? I would recommend getting a custom grind for what you want out of the car.

a 5.3 stage III head,custom ported & polished Farra 2.05"int. and 1.65"ex. polished combustion chamber, heads milled 0.030, 3 angle valve job, Patriot gold valve springs, and for the cam this is the cam that in my all forged 348cid. motor right now ,and will up grade to a bigger cam , What cam would be a power house cam for the street and strip for a 418cid. I have a 250 shot pro fogger N.O.S. M6 ,8.8 ford rear end , 4:30 gears , full race suspension .The only thing that's stock is the body and of you count the strip kit it's not ether

i would call futral or EDC and get a grind. I would guess something like a camotion grind 250/254 .64X on a 109 would be make good mid range tq and be a really good street/strip cam.
