Default Cam choices

Well, I'm in the finishing stages of my motor, and I'm stuck on which cam to choose.

The motor is a 351 cleveland with a stock bottom end, and cut 2v heads. Car will be driven on the street on the weekends, and raced a few times every month. I am looking for streetability, but I am also concerned with making the power I'm looking for.

Brand is not incredibly important to me, crane, comp, or any of the big names are fine as long as it is a good choice for me.

Any help would be very appreciated, I'm stuck.

Thanks.

My advice as well as some other's will be to get in touch with FTI or other similiar company and get a custom grind. I got mine from comp and it seems to work great. You pay a little more, but the price is worth the hp you would be leaving on the table if you went with an OTS cam.

When you called, what did they need to know?

They will pretty much need to know everything about your engine. Like heads, what kind of port job, intake and the supporting mods.
