I'm going to be installing a cam in my speed density car this week. Its about the most agressive you can go with speed density. I'mgot this cam here. I'll definitly post up how the car runs.

Also check out this chart: All the colored cams work with speed density except the bottom one.

Zach, if you have a really bad lope issue due to fuel, try installing a small inline fuel filter in the vac line to the MAP sensor... its an old megasquirt trick, but it works for ford SD too

Tom moss told me to do something very similar to keep vacuum pulses to the map down.

Rasmith I'd look into a mass air swap if your looking for sound. SD cars with cams aren't really going to idle to well under 1000rpm. You might have a slight lope but nothing to noticable.
