Don't listen to these guys, they're all pussies. Put 4.88s in the rear and a big donkey dick cam in there, it'll run like a champ.

Can see how mature few of y'all are was just asking for a few opinions nd advices for the cam but can tell looks like all y'all like to do is bash on people these days smh got on this website for its reputation. Had heard lot of good things bout it disappointing to come find myself to this bunch of cocky motherf**kers. It doesn't go to everybody on the thread. They know who they are.

I think you got the idea by now that its way to big of a cam, you will be happy with a cam better suited to your combo and your goals.

He's a member on here, PatG is his username. For $25 he'll spec you a cam suited for your exact specs and what you're wanting to do with it.

If you don't want to dish out the cash on a custom grind, there are always the tried and true cams.

Comp 212/218 Low lift & High lift

Comp 216/220 Low Lift & High Lift

Lunetti 215/215

TSP220 I believe both on a 112 LSA and a 114 LSA Either will work well.

TSP224 - This is kind of a higher end cam, but shouldn't do too bad with your stall, and probably not bad at all if cut on a 112LSA

Comp also has the LSr line of cams that have a large lift moderate duration lobe profile. I believe there is a 217/229 or something along those lines that should give you good power as well.
