Cam rev range CC306
The comp cams website says that the CC306 cam rev range is from 1800-5800 rpm why then does everyone say that you have to "rev the **** outta it" to make power? what am I missing? I have heard some suggest revving past 6500-6700 rpms, What gives?

maybe thats where they got their claim(comp)
All I can tell is that this thing pulls like a freight train anywhere above 3500 RPMs. I cant wait to get it dyno tuned.

6700 or 6800 with a cc306...ive had many lt1 crs and ive spun some bearings...most common problem i have found is starvation...i always run 6 qts and a truck filter..if you watch most every lt1 with 5 qts in first gear sometimes in second the oil pressure will drop from being pushed back in the pan or just plain sucking the pan dry...ive beat the **** outa some stock bottom ends

My engine builder used a NAPA gold 1061, I havn't decided if I am going to go with a diff brand yet but I will not get a smaller size. for instance compared to the Fram filter for our cars it is twice as tall.

If a cam like the 306 stops pulling before 6000rpms then there is a problem, be it tuning or valvetrain.
My best guess on the Comp rpm range problem is they are giving ranges based on Gen 1 data, not considering what our ultra short intake runners do to the powerband.
