You need some more L/S for a "streeter"? My opinion only.
We actually use a high number of the OEM L-82 cams, these deliver excellent street manners and performance.
Thanks, Gary in N.Y.
P.S. On many of these type builds we simply use "marine" grind cams if it becomes a "book-grind" (stocking part number) cam.

From: Las Vegas - Just stop perpetuating myths please.
Not sure if intk c/l of 106 is to much. I would run a dynamic compression ratio calc first. Also don't know if you're valve springs will handle 0.480" lift?
Other than that the added exh duration will help your exh and the added lift will add torque.
On that cam I would use 1.6 rockers on the intakes only - if I could. This should help move the intk closing/reduce dyn comp and add more torque.
Good luck and hope this helps.

For better flow then the stock sized manifolds, won't compete with good headers, but definently flow better than what came with it. This also puts the option to run 2.5" duals and a good straight through muffler.
