Listing has been removed. It is not wise to install a cam untuned. What kind of power are you looking for? If drivability a concern?

If you are looking for a good all around cam that will drive great, especiualy if you are a 6-speed, then look into the StreetSweeper HT. I installed that cam in a full bolt on Z28 and it made over 410hp to the tires through a ten bolt and a t-56.

That's probably not going to happen, to be honest. You can easily approach the 400hp mark cam only and still retain decent drivability. Ed Curtis is very knowledgeable and will work with you when it comes to what you want. I would go over to Hardcorels1.com and send him a PM. He worked with me for almost two weeks before we made a decision. He will also be drawing out a cam profile for my LQ9 later this year.

Yes, I would not mess with it. Send Ed Curtis a PM and let him know what you want to do, I am sure he can lead you in the right direction. You could also check out EPS for a cam.
