Default Which cam do you have

who's running a cam larger than a 228 duration with a 588 lift with a 2400 rpm stall are smaller. I would like this cam or a bigger one but they say with a 2400 stall anything larger than a 228 duration will push ( car won't stop go ) anyone have a bigger cam. I have comp 918 springs and will retune car. I want a hard lope and a power range like 2400-6800 rpms. I'm running a comp cam now that's a 222/224 566/568 112ls to small. I have a good set of heads on car to.

Well, this may be an apple to oranges comparison, but FWIW...
In my 402 stroker I have 228/232 .581/.588 114, and a Vigilante 2400. If it was a strictly drag setup, I'd probably go with a bigger converter. As it is, I have zero driveability issues with this setup on the street (750rpm warm idle).
