Default For you guys that understand cams

ok my motor is coming out soon and the top end is getting completely rebuilt
vavles,springs,heads, Lt's 4.10s and all other neccessary supporting mods.

i cant decide between these 2 cams. im not releasing names because most of you will just see a name and say go with that one.

234/230 duration, 111 lobe sep, .550/.500 lift

or

225/235 .050" duration, 108 LSA 560/.575 lift

the car is a daily driver. will be tracked every now and then. goal is 300rwhp without losing much bottom end power. bottom end motor is staying stock so i will only be reving to about 6000-6200

thanks

Cam #2 looks better to me. You've got a higher lift and the durations are closer to equal (better for N/A)

the lsa on the first cam will make it more streetable, the second will give more lope and more high end power.
