Re: Dreaded cam question....

Bronze dizzy gear will keep from chewin up the gear on the cam, get something that has as much lift as possible with the lowest duration and a high degree of lobe seperation thats what you want for the street anything over 220 degrees of duration at .050 lift will require a torque converter swap so stay a way stay there or under with the most lift and you should have a wide powerband. if you want it to idle without knocking your teeth out then get something with 110 degrees of seperation or more stock cams are way up there at 116, overlap can also be an issue the longer the 2 valves are open together the choppier it will run
