383 Cam Suggestion

[71ChevyCheyenne]

Hey guys,

Been planning on building a 383 stroker for awhile now and have the parts coming to assemble my short block next week. This is my first engine build so I’m looking for a few more opinions on what would be your suggestion for a cam in my truck. Here are my specs.

383 shortblock
9.5:1 compression
Vortec heads with ls6 springs to allow .500” lift
Dual plane intake manifold

It is a 2 piece rear main so I’m going to go with a hydraulic flat tappet cam.

Truck is a manual with 4.11 posi rear but will probably change to 3.73 or 3.42.

I am (like everyone) looking for a nice lopey exhaust sound, but don’t mind sacrificing it for great low end torque and driveabilty, which is my main priority because this will hopefully be a daily driver. Been looking at the comp xe268h.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!
