Forced to by choice
I'd like to get everyones opinion on this topic. I've tried searching for info on cams a little more aggressive then the 422 and not a whole lot comes up.
Heres a break down of the build so you guys can help me a little.
-30 over block
-Stock crank(sorry I dont have $2500 to spare.
)
-Eagle rods
-JE pistons
-P&P Vortec heads with 1.5 oem shaft mount rockers. (No idea on flow numbers yet as I'm waiting for the heads to show up but will find out after the first of the year. Target cfm is around 235/185)
-No idea on springs yet either, depending on cam.
-Edelbrock 2114 intake converted with a 75mm tb.
-More then likely 75 or 84lb injectors. (probably gonna go with a boost pump and my 255 pump)
-Stock ported exhaust manifolds(unless I get a good amount back on taxes
)
-T-76 GTQ
-2800 stall, that really stalls at 3k. (I'm going to stick with this and see how it works when the build's done. If I need more stall then I'll get it. But I dont want to get a 3500 and realize I could have used a 3k.
)
Custom A2A. (26x12x3 core with 3" piping)
Meth injection.
In the future I'll be adding electronic boost controler, and a MSD Dig 6.
Thats the build in a nutshell. I know there are a bunch that dont like to talk about their build. And I'm not asking you to tell me your build spec's. I'm asking from your help in dealing with faster trucks (I'm shooting for mid 10's with 11.0's on the street) that have crazy top end power, what cam would work the best?
Last but not least. What rpm do you think that build is good for? Because I know that'll be asked in ref to the cam question. I'm not looking to spin the motor like the Hoovers did past 8k. I'm looking for around 5500-6k. Will the above work, if not. What should I change now assuming its not the block or crank. (the big money items.)
