I have a fresh short block 440 with 2355 pistons and rpm rods, also stealth heads, rpm intake, 1 7/8 headers. I don't really know how to build a mud bog engine, but I mostly need help with camshaft choice. I am thinking the mp 528.
Also, it's a short wide pw with 38.5 swampers, and will weigh between 45-4700 pounds.
Also the converter will be a 2k stall for now, but will step up to a 3k or more later.
Thoughts?

Oh and I forgot to mention, there is a chance I will put a 100 shot on it eventually as well.

What gear are you running? and what kind of mudding? lots of low down crawling or some possibly faster racing type mudding? and what kind of horse power are you looking for

You normally want a cam that has the same rpm power range as the other parts. 2k stall is kinda low IMO

Get a converter with an anti-ballooning plate
