Default My Cam Thread

I'm looking to buy the 305 very soon. I'm an idiot when it comes to looking on their website to hunt it down. Can someone link me?
Also I was going to use this thread for future questions, but I'll try and do all my research first. Thanks

BTW I've done enough research as to the cam I want, so please don't try to persuade me in another direction..

a custom grind would be your best bet in all honesty. 75$ more for more power throughout the curve, thats an easy decision.

I dont have anything to prove this statement as fact, but most people think the 503 is the better cam when compared to the 305. my buddy ran consisten 12.5's @ 113 with full bolt-ons, nitto's, 4.10's and a 227/233 cam with lift in the .56X range. that would be another option, apparently it has no surge issues either.

I would go a little bigger, because the 305 is not much bigger than the hot cam, and you have 4.10's so you are already set there. get a custom grind, its your best bet, otherwise check out the 227/233, and the cc503.

If you're open to suggestions for other than the cc305, I'd recommend the 503 or 306.
