With that cam, I'm guessing it is going to be a mellow idle with the 350. Is that a thumper cam? If so, I'm not sure how the idle is on those.

What is the rpm range that cam is speced for? For trucks, I usually try to get a cam that produces power in the lower rpm range. I think my cam is speced for 1500-5500 rpm range.

No its not a thumper cam. The info i found for it is.....
350cid/ 350 HP LT-1, L82 Hydraulic camshaft
2200-5500 RPM Range.

This cam is for my jeep which weighs 2600 pounds with me in it.

I'd go with a standard Performer or Performer EPS intake. Should make better low-end power and throttle response. I doubt you'll be turning much over 5500 with it anyway.

Thanks but i gotta stay with the combo i have. Im doing this project for my jeep which is gotta be as cheap as i can go. lol Gotta keep the real money for the C10. Im just curious how the power will be in it and the idle quality.
