i dont know what to do
i dont know what to do so im in the market for a cam. Looking at the 306 or the 305 cams. Ill have stock heads with maby 2.02 1.60 valves but stock porting. What cam will give me the most power. Its a strip / street car so i dont care about emmisions or streetabilty, just plain power. What should i be looking at. Anyone got real word numbers and 1/4 mile times with cam only lt1's with bolt-ons? My mods are in my sig..

You would have been FAR FAR better off to port the heads and keep the stock valves not even just stock size the actual stock valves.
I would say skip those off the shelf grinds especially since you are not talking emmisions. Basically all the off the shelf stuff is compromised for drivability and emmissions based on the fact people will pick a too large cam.

you really should contact bret bauer about the cam for your set up.
if you have no worries of the dreaded emissions factor, you should be looking at cams with a 110*lobe sep,you may even wish to look at www.eportworks.com his combos really get down.

Verdad Gallardo yea, no emissions on my car at all and gonna be a strip car. I dont got he thousands for a LE3 package or anyting. But i would like to put in a cam. And while im at it, my local machine shop can 3 angle my stock valves and mill it a little for $250 pr. So not bad at all. So ill do the head job and a cam.

Also, the stock valve job is likey better than a typical 3 angle one.

As mentioned above if your not going to port the heads then I wouldn't change the valves. This is just an impersonation. "You wouldn't hook a Fire hose up to your outside faucet to wash your car would you?" Ok
Most of the current machine shops do 3 angle jobs now and just call it a valve job because that would be the standard.
And in one day it went from a Street/Strip car to a Strip car which is it?

What does it matter what it is. Hell, i would drive John Forces funny car on the street!! Im racing the car weather it be on the street or the strip. Stop tryin to nit pick my thread and answer the question, dont analyze.
