It is 383, deck 0, 12 half to 1 comp, le3 heads, I had clearance issues with my old cam so we sent it off to have some grounding on it, and it clears now, Im jw what a good nice size cam to go with ... Im trying to make some serious power oh btw im spraying the car, plan on shooting it with about 250+.... looking for some good routes on cam!

thanks chris

if you have LE heads I'd recommend getting an LE cam, doesn't cost much more than an off the shelf one

If your getting a solid roller then go with Lloyds new solid roller. IF you want to stay with hyd. Get Lloyds le3 cam, it will be perfect either way.
