Cam info please

pro88 · 02-14-2001, 12:03 AM

I recently aquired a cam(new in box), the specs are .460/.460 .288/.288. What kind of gains should I feel with it and will a Performer intake work well with it? Will this cam work for street/strip applications? I plan on putting it into a early 302 motor I have laying around. The block is .030 over with aftermarket pistons/rods. Early closed chamber heads that have 1.94/1.60 valves, and a Holley 600 (1850s)vac. sec. I'm going to run a C-4 with 2000 stall and 3.73 butt gears. I plan on it being a driver. Thanks for the help guys!!!

The specs of that cam are similar to the E303 cam from FMS. It has a bit more lift, but it is about the same. If it's performance is comparable it should be a pretty good combo. The E-bok comes out a bit ahead of a GT-40 on the upper end, and I know a guy that runs an E303 with the Gt-40, and it's pretty potent...street yes...strip ??

Sounds like what I plan to put together make work pretty well, but what kind of shift points should I expect? Do you guys think the Performer will be enough manifold or should I go ahead and pick up a Performer RPM. What kind of RPM range will I be looking at? My guess is 1500 - 5000. What do you guys think? Let me know!!

My friend never Dyno'd, or ran his car...in fact he blew the motor last year, and I'm still trying to find time to put it together. The Edelbrock is a great intake, I had one b4 I switched to carb, you have the added luxury of porting it out later if needed. It will serve your purposes for this setup at least.

I know my friend got at least an extra 1000 usable rpm with the E303, and at WOT his trans shifted at 6200..(non stock)
