Cam opinions
Motor in sig. 383 11:1 CR. Will be upgrading to 42# injectors and a 58mm TB as well. Heads flow very well:
lift int exh
100 76 68
200 132 112
300 188 138
400 236 168
500 264 188
550 274 196
600 280 204
I was thinking of running the XFI 292 which is: 292/300 .584"/.579" w/1.6 Rockers. Should i go bigger? Trying to keep my 987 valve springs since i dont want to have to swap out all the valvetrain.

His email is bret@bauer-racing.com. You could get one through Lloyd or AI as well. Lloyd's run $300 I believe and I think AI's run $375...I think. I don't know about Bret's cams. Good luck.

I always recommend staying on the smaller side of duration with higher lifts...FWIW I run an 11.2:1 383 with ported stockers (2.00/1.56 valves) and I run a weenie 226/234 .568" 111 lsa cam...Numbers in my sig...Bigger is definitely not better..Remember for optimal results you need to match heads/cam/converter/rear gear...oops....you're an M6...subtract the converter!!

I have run the XFI 292 and I have had me experience with Bret Bauer. I recommend you stay away from both. I now run the much smaller 226/234 AI cam and it runs better all around than either of those cams. The Bauer cam was just a complete nightmare all together, not to mention it did not perform.
My vote personally is to go to AI

But yes AI would be a good choice. They make great stuff without a doubt...but Lloyd is another great option. Bret's cams have been known to perform as well. Make it your choice though.
