Another "which cam should I get" thread........
Another "which cam should I get" thread........ I want to do a cam and rocker arm install in the next few months and would like to get some ideas of what will get the results I'm looking for.
The only mods I have are LT headers, off road ypipe, and catback, and I don't plan on doing anything other mods after the cam install....at least for a good year or two.
What I'm looking for:
1. doesn't need to rev too high to make a lot of power. maybe 6000rpm would be good?
2. has a nice choppy idle.
3. makes decent power but I don't want to sacrifice #1 and #2 just to get an extra 10hp. I rarely drag race and drive the car normally 95%.
4. driveability isn't too much of a factor because the car is only a "fun" car and only gets driven 3000-4000 miles a year.
