Im doing H/C/I. Im planning on going with a 200cc/60cc SBF Aluminum Heads, Typhoon Street Strip race intake and my only questions is the CAM Size i should go with. I have a few options from the kit im buying but I am not sure the size I can max out at.

get the numbers for crane cams, comp cams, doug herbert, and any other cam manufacturer you know of and start ringing them up.Have all your motor information ready to go and what gears, tranny, if auto what stall or torque converter you have and they will use their cam software to give you some good recomendations depending on how much time your gonna spend on street/strip. I know the Crane guys offered me a"street" solid roller that had .598 .569 lift and I ended up with the .644 .643 lift from doug herbert. They are going to give you cams all over the map and once you get some recomendations you can ask the other companies about the recomendations you got from their competitors.
