BEST CAM TO GET FOR STOCK HEADS?? please reply
#18
I'm amazed by how much ya'll know. There is no definitive source for cam information though.... I guess it's just something you pick up. How do you know when you should upgrade other components too? (hardened pushrods, roller rockers, springs, etc)

If you're looking for a good balance of idle, driveability, and power, may I suggest the 218/224. Couple of guys putting mid 340's HP AND TQ to the ground with this and bolt on's, and it doesn't need to be revved to the moon. Flat TQ curve, good all around power, and if emissions are a concern this one would be no problem.
Numbers aren't everything. Those 11.9X times are on 1.6 short times, some of those cams run good HP numbers but are lacking on the TQ curve.
Just my $.02

For springs I went with CM612 from CMotorsports, single spring (no machining) good to .600, only $89.95 and 1.6 Non self-aligning pro mags from comp w/guide plates and new hardened pushrods.
As for lifters if yours look like they are in good shape there really is no need to get new ones with any of the cams mentioned.(mild cams)

I was thinking about going with the GM 847.
but the spring the cam card suggests is only good to .585 lift... not good if I were to run 1.6's.
how many people are running the CMotorsports spring? (looking for reliability.)

HotCam. Regardless of what you hear. The CC305 and the Hotcam are basically the same. You could drive 2 seperate cars and with all things being equal except the cam they would perform about the same. I say Hotcam cause you can get the whole kit cheap.
