Need help finding a cam!
I have been looking at cams for a couple of weeks now but I can't find what I have been looking for. I want a mild cam nothing big that I can daily drive. But I want something that makes good power and has a good lope at idle! Any help or feedback would be appreciated!

If you are particular about what you're looking for, going custom grind is the way to go most likely.
http://www.guerragroup.com/camshaft-help Take a look at that, Pat G will custom spec you a cam for ~$25

I asked the same questions for about a year before I decided to go with the Brian Tooley (BTR) Stage 3 N/A cam. I daily drive my Camaro and have very little issues with it bucking under low RPM's. The way I see it with the BTR cams is like this if you care about your neighbors and have a good relationship then go with the stage 2 cam, but if you don't mind making some noise then go with the Stage 3 cam. You can check out my build thread, it has video, and hopefully it helps. Just skip to the very last page of my build thread. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...=275478&page=7

It's so hard to throw out a blanket recommendation without more info. It's just as much about future mods as it is current ones as most do not like to buy the same part several times. Like another member mentioned out L92 Stage 2C camshaft has been a good all around winner for years. It has great drive ability, killer sound, it's stroker and power adder friendly and works good with a stick or auto. For those that are going to compliment the camshaft with a set of our CNC ported heads we recommend going with the newer L92 Stage 2C-HL if your a stick shift customer that is more N/A or road race inspired our L92 stage 2R-MAX is a great camshaft choice. It is on the aggressive side Also on a side note mod dependent we can send a Mycal hand held to you as well and set you up with our custom remote tuning this keeps you from having to chase local tuning that may or may not be up to par and the ability to load the stock file without having to go back to said local shop for re flashing. This is mod dependent and combo dependent of course. |
