Default help me match a cam to my stall....

I prolly did this backwards, but I installed a yank sst3600 friday and now need some mid range grunt for it. I was thinking a staight 220 or 224 on a low lift xe lobe would be great for this stall, but need opinons....
mods are: tune, lt's, ory, hd2 shift kit, 4.10's eaton posi, and 20's. I retuned for the stall also.
thanks

how high you wanna turn it? a 224 should make useable power to 6200+...

just depends on how big you want it, and where you shift at. that 3600 stall will cover prettty much any cam you want to pick that under 230+ duration

sounds big, but yanks are tight. spins about 1800 to 2000 to get movin, and around 2500 for a good brisk pull. the stock cam has no power in the 2000-3500 range. flashes 3500 and brake stalls 2700-2800.

dave from yank told me it would be good for what I wanted to do, but I was going into the conversation with 3000-3200 on the brain, and by the time I hung up he had talked me into 3600. I have a restall left, so I may go with a 3200.

I have done alot of searches and 224 is the reasonable choice, even if I back it down to 3200. right? shift points are at 6100-6200.
