Default new cam specd out for the 408

well my builder just called me back today and told me that he has once again changed my cam for a l92 stroker
First of all i was gonna go with a ms4 camshaft my choice jeje but then i was readin threads and i guess i had picked out a bad one lol .. Then my builder called me and told me to go a different route along the line of 240 252,114lsa and then called me back today and said with my stall and gears that i have he changed it to a 230 242 114 lsa since its going in a truck i need somethign to get it up faster rather than having power kick in towards the upper rpm band ..

I'm looking for a cam myself for my 408 L92 setup. Good luck getting people to respond there are quite a few smartasses on here that will tell you to do a search like you haven't done that already.
How do you think your tranny will last behind that beast?

A guy on the forum(WKMCD) runs a 234 240 112+0 and works good in a 408/L92 combo

I am putting a Comp 236/248 114 lsa in a L92 427. Same split that your going with just in between the 2 cams you listed. I bought the longblock with a 250/262 113+3 cam and that is just way too much cam for a street driven car.

The above SDPC cam is whats in my LS2 with Stage II L92 heads all Manley stuff. You will find cams larger then that in a heavy truck don't work so well. That is about as big as you want with big torque on mids & low end. Different story if you had a 3600 lb car not a 4600 to 5000 lb truck. All the SS Trailblazer guys have ran faster with the smaller cams. I should run low 12's with it all motor & low 11's on nitrous with my built motor.
