look in the stickys..there is a excellent cam thread there....as for the bottom end..you dont wanna spin it too high..maybe 6200 6300rpms max! If you want you engine to last that is.

I heard it's a good cam and makes a good amount of torque. When I went cam only, I was still getting used the the forum and didn't ask or look here . I went with a CC 501 cam since my car is stock internals and a dd. I'm going to get it dyno tuned tomorrow and I'll post up the results so you can get an idea. I think the cam I got will give me less hp than the crane or LPE, but ...I didn't even think about asking anyone until it was too late

Honastly, I think a decent cam for a stock bottom end is the hotcam. I've got that in my car with a set of GTP STG2 heads and I'm putting down around 383 RWHP. Not nitro, just bolt ons. It's worth a look for a stock bottom end car. I'm sure you can find one kinda cheap too on ebay/equipment exchange forum. Lot of people like to get rid of them when they stroke their engines.

A friend of mine has an LE2 heads/cam setup on his otherwise stock shortblock. Our dyno curves are identical. We both make peak torque with 100rpm of each other and both make peak HP within 100rpms too. I actually make MORE peak torque than he does( my 358rwtq to his 353). He does make 379rwhp to my 371 though. Both dynoed on the same dyno as well.
CC306 is a great cam, kicks *** with stock heads, and really kicks *** with ported heads. I've been running this cam for 5 yrs now and would buy it again tomorrow.
