Cam Specs... good for my setup? ---

[alwayscode390]

I am interested in getting a cam with these specs, but am not sure if it will be too strong to be street driven....or match my setup (and can I use 1.6's with no probs?!) .

cam specs are
Int Exh
277 287
Dur @ .50

227 236

Valve lift
.525 .520

Lobe Sep
115.0


Its almost as strong as my DD cam in my lt1 ... but thats n/a and I am not familiar with turbo cam setups. Here are my mods --- spearco meth kit, 2800 or 3k 9/11 stall, cold air intake, mccoy stage 1 l35's, crane gold 1.6 rr's, 75# or bigger injectors, atr headers, atr 3" downpipe, pte63 turbo, vortec bov, innovative ext wastegate, 3" electric cutout to a 3" exhaust, new srp pistons and a possible stroker crank, eagle h beam rods, electric fan, and a RPM a/a intercooler. THANKS ---

I think that is similar to the McCoy cam that I had.
No drivability problems.
I was running FAST, 83 lb. inj., McCoy Stage 3 heads w/1.52 rockers, stock exhaust manifolds, T72 and 2800 stall 9/11.

OOOH sounds close to my setup ( you have a bigger turbo and better heads, but no headers or meth ) . You may have helped me with my question of 2800 OR 3000 converter too....did you like the 2800!? ( I want to go lowest rpm converter possible ) , THANKS ---

Besides the 2800 9/11 & stock, I don't have much to compare too. I was able to power break to 10-12 psi without any problems.
I've had 2800 stall in my Sy when it was stock & when it was built. Either way, I liked it.

Sweet, so not much lag on the T72 with the 2800? Thats the real concern for me, and why I was considering a 3k , but YOUR turbo is bigger!!! ---

I am running a leaner AFR to minimize lag.
