RE: summit racing
CCA-CL31-238-3 is a good cam for a 289 using a stock converter and springs. Since you have an intake and headers, this would give you good driveability and more power, plus that sound you want.
If you want to get everything, like timing chain, springs, retainers, locks, in addition to the cam and lifters use this number. CCA-K31238-3
If I were doing a daily driver type 289, this is what I would put in it. Much bigger and you are going to need gears, lose converter(if auto). Unless you want to change the heads and you have a manual trans, then you can go a bit more. A lager cam moves the powerband up in rpm leaving little to no power under 3000 rpm, where a street car spends most of its life.
If you want to do a full build with aftermarket heads and change other things on it, let me know. You dont have to follow exactly, or even take my advice, but overcamming sucks. It sounds mean but doesnt go anywhere.
