347 cam choice?
 

I am looking at building a new motor for my stang. I am looking at a 347 and i am wondering if anyone knows if the Trickflow cam .574/.595 lift with 298/310 duration is a good choice of cam.. It will be carburated. Let me know if anybody has used this cam before. Or any other suggestions. I will be running AFR 185 heads as well. I am new on the Message Board so any information on this cam would be appreciated.. thanks in advance!!

Look at the cash you have already spent. That engine deserves a custom cam. Go to www.cammotion.com and you will get a cam that is made to squeeze every last HP out of your stroker motor.

Fill out the online questionaire and they will email you the perfect cam specs for your car. You then have the option to purchase the cam for about $290.00 shipped.

Do it!!! :cool:
