i was just looking at comp cams. I was thinking the same thing when i looked at that cam. For my application i was thinking of the 210int, 220ex .512, .512 on my 1.7 it would be .544 with a 112cl. It might be good for my everyday driver being that it is going to pull decent vac.

Yup, that would be a good blower cam :biggthumpup:

is this too agressive for my truck?

I've got a great cam for a blower: Comp Cam grind - 230/236 duration, .55x/590 lift, 114lsa.

This'll make any cam truck move, and I was able to run in no issues on a stock PCM so it'll be no issuje with MP PCM, B&G, or of course SCT.

Interested?

[ADakotaRTGuy]

True.

[DaPurpleRT]

If you're doing a 408 blown or even nice 360 that cam is not enough IMO. I ran it only on NA/juice bolt on 360. It did OK though.

Actually your cam will be fine. Nice thing about a boosted setup is you don't need to run a big cam to make good power :) Of course a bigger cam will help make more power, the choice is up to you. Especially if you're going with SCT or a standalone and can tune it. If you're gonna keep it on a flash, that cam will be fine. Altho, bigger cam also means a higher stall and/or gears, always gotta keep the total package in mind. :biggthumpup:

Yea I would actually like to keep this thing tame enough to be on the street. i am afraid if I put to big of a cam that it would be to crazy to drive on the street. I want to keep the stock gears and put maybe a 3k stall on it. If I pull 11's I am happy.

Dave makes some good points about a blower making good power even with a smaller cam. I personally would go a little stiffer on the duration.

Yea I can get this with the block I am looking at. Hopefully.

[mtlcafan79]

You gonna snag that block from Jim?

[ADakotaRTGuy]

If I can get a good deal since it has to have a minor rebuild on it.

[mtlcafan79]

OK. Let me know, I'm right near by. There's an awesome Mexican restaurant right by his house if you like that kinda stuff.

It helps if you quote the post when you're replying to a specific post. A lot of have sniffed too many fumes and get confused easily :jester:

I don't know about completely street friendly, it's gonna be pretty nasty with that cam. Have you talked to Lloyd yet about how his 245 cam is on the street?

[DaPurpleRT]
