Default cam

Ok, since my thread about the cam got out of hand and wasn't talking about cams like I wanted to, we'll start over.

I was thinking something along the lines of the ZZ9 cam http://www.tpis.com/pg13-16.html

Or,

I have the ZZ9 on my 355.. but have 1.6i/1.52e rockers

for your 383.. I would use one of these:

-CC305: Dur @.050 220/230 Lift w/1.5 rockers .510/.510 LSA 114
-LT4 Hot Cam: Dur @.050 218/228 Lift w/1.6 rockers .525/.525 LSA 114or 112 (can't remember)

But his 383 will have stock heads and manifolds and such......


:confused:
Yeah but the cam will help a little with the stock heads..

better then swapping cams in a year or when he installs ported heads

I did the ZZ9 with stock heads cause I did not want to swap the cam when I swapped heads this year. I think he will be fine with either cam I suggested

The CC305 cam will be pushing the limits of the springs you have to put on it with 1.6 rockers. Has .540 lift with 1.6's.

How well does that cam work with the stock heads?

And the HOT cam... even though I have stock converter and gears right now, that too will change in the future.... probably 2800 when the tranny has to be rebuilt, and 3.73's when the rear end goes.
