Maybe someone can help me out... the OP says he is installing 4" stroker.. I'm also getting a 4" stroker and STOCK bore.. and was told my car would be 403 ci In fact I think I'm getting the same rods, and pistons...(same brand) maybe his are bigger if he has larger pistons ??
How does the OP get 408 ci. ??? I was told my motor would be 403 ci.
That cam is too small for a 408 and the DCR would be high that much static compression. I'd run a bigger cam with more lift to better take advantage of the ported heads. Feel free to give me a call if you'd like to discuss details.

the pistons in the kit are for 4.03" bore, and I chose this because I need to bore my block anyway....
I want a street setup with decent street maners . What setup would you recomand ?
Doug Thorley Tri-Y LT and Procomp / Typhoon 96mm Intake with stock TB.
I want a street setup with low end torque. I can go with 95 fuel all the time, no problem.

Those are 1.875" primaries? I'd go with a FAST 102 personally over that intake unless it's been ported. What's your planned max rpm? With that octane you could run that little cam and it would be a torque monster, just the power will fall off up top.
1 7/8" primaries and 3" Collector .... maybe I'll go with FAST if the funds are there in the end....or I can have the Thyphoon ported, no problem.
Rev limit should be whatever is safe (I'm in the dark here), as I said I want a street setup with decent iddle / move around / parking / etc.
I don't neccesarly want to keep this cam, if I can get both low torque and decent power gains up top, then why not

Yes you are right, but if you do go with the FAST, I would recommend that you port it before your install. Good Luck with your mods. Also are you going to install an after market balancer?

I hear ya, it's just that cam works well in a 5.7L...you will be leaving power on the table up top over say a 236/242 .615/.612, ~25 and it will peter out above 6000rpm with that small cam is why I asked. If the motor is built well no reason not to spin it to 7k imo
