I talked to the guy from Summit Racing today about a cam for my car. Currently it's a Non HP 440 out of a 70 Chrysler New Yorker. All is currently stock. I wanted the most Cam I could get without changing the Torque Converter. Springs I don't mind. The Cam in question is a Comp Cam 262270 with a 462410 lift. Rpm is 1300-5600 with a 110 lope seperation. Anyone has this cam and can tell me is this the way to go? I have 3.23 gear and 727 tranny
Some good info here, but what kind of car would be a bit of a help too. Any head work or rock stock? Manifolds, or headers? Exhaust system size? Intake manifold? Carb? vac sec/ dp?
Generalizing, I don't think you want to go with a cam of any more than 272 advertised duration if running a stock converter. In some situations, that may even be a bit much, The cam you've posted will have nice street manners in most applications.
Not one I'd pick for a tow rig etc..
What are your goals for the vehicle you are putting this in?
