Im going to be making some changes to my setup and was seeing what everyone has had luck with..? I know I could call and spend a good chunk getting a custom grind and i might end up doing that but just seeing what you guys are running.. Thanks

And your engine is ?


G-
466 speed pro dome pistons with big valve reliefs, motorsport intake, worked procomp heads with all the good stuff and been working very well. 4500 stall C4 trans
That could encompas a lot of ground from a "street/strip" car to a "top sportsman".
I am sure they have different camshafts even though they both use nitrous.
A "custom" camshaft for the application is probably needed in either case.
guess ill make a few calls..
I think Wal-Mart sells cams now.

MAN!!! That was a good one! HA! I just noticed your running 9.0s. I'm almost there with my "junk". REAL close!

I ran with my n/a 472 what you run with your "sprayed" junk.................like 5 years ago....................unported [email protected] 3300#s......................it had a "custom" cam..................;)
And that's the difference in your build and mine. Mine is built for spray only. Its still a budget build 466 that's only a few tenths away from your $$$$ big cube motor. So I'm doing pretty damn good with what I got. but of course its junk because I didn't spend $3000 on my heads alone. But its cool I'm just lookin for some ideas so I can make some small changes and pick up a few tenths or so.
My low $$$$$$$$$ n/a iron headed small block will run as close to your "sprayed" big inch motor as yours runs to my "huge" n/a 529..........it also has a custom cam............;)
Gotta love custom cams
I see absolutely NO reason to be antagonistic unless you have an oversized ego which needs to be put into check or you're simply looking for an argument; neither one is a reason which is worth a damn.

Did you not notice the OP has Pro-Comp heads ?

G- ;)

I like steak yet some people prefer Skippy peanut butter and that is their prerogative ... this was a question about CAMSHAFTS.
Jeremiah did you ever get those heads flowed ??? it will help you out alot in the long run if you are going to keep the P/C heads ...then one of the cam gurus can custom grind you a cam ---- give Lem or Randy a call they will be a great help to you .....
