I have a buddy of mine who was offering me this purple cam for my 383. He ran it for a while in his 440 before he swapped cams and went with the larger .509 mp cam.
My car is a stock 4 speed, manual brakes, and power steering so vacuum is not an issue here. Weighs roughly 3800-4000lb and is going to be mainly a street car. The car does have the stock AC in case anyone is wondering and 3.23 gears but can bump to a 3.55 if necessary. Most of the 383 will be stock, minus the headers, performer intake, and carb. I'm going to do some head work on my stock 346's. I was looking at the XE262 comp cam but If I get a freebie cam that'll save me some money.
Which 484 Mopar cam, as there are 2 of them.. The original one (P4120235) and the later one (P5007697).
The original 484 has a great idle lope and runs well in a 4 Speed car up to 6K, but has low vacuum.. (<8") If street driving and car has power brakes and auto trans, the later 484 is a better choice for street driveability.
Just my $0.01..
