Would any of the cams in the [Email]240@50[/Email] range still be streetable? I want it to have a nice choppy idle but at the same time I dont want to lose a lot of low end torque.




A local guy has a Hughes 237/242 @ .050, .548/.555 hydraulic in his 408. It hits a good lick and runs 7 teens in a 3200# Dart Sport. IIRC the motor is about 9.8-1 on the compression.

You can find something better than comp, there selection for mopar is not good and most of there cams have to much duration for a good street strip car.




Whats wrong with the comp cams? Ive always been a fan of them and always had good results.

Comp Cams has about 10,000 lobes they can grind on a SBM cam.
Just because they only list 30 in their catalog doesn't mean you
can't get what you need.

I got one of there off the shelf cams and had to take 40 thou off the front journal so it would fit in the block correctly.

I have the comp 275hl in my 408. It sounds and drives pretty good. It definitely sounds cammed but isn't the rumpetiest, I can idle below 1000 rpm. Power comes on good in the midrange and pulls steady to 5-6k but no explosive cam 'turn on' in the upper rpms like a more radical cam.

I think I could have gone with the 285hl and gotten some more horses, but for a hot daily driver I am satisfied.

I did send it back and they did not take enough off, it took 2 weeks with shipping that i paid for so i had it done locally, they could not figure out way it did not fit, maybe it was for a chevy same grind.
