It's a great cam, I just started driving my 440 'Cuda with a Mr. Six Pack. I wonder how it would run in a 383...

it seems to have a bit of an idle-thing going on, in a good way, more than I would think you'd see in a stock car.

Is there a web site to order a Mr Six Pack cam?

I have stock quiet mufflers right now, and there's no mistaking my motor for a 318. It's not wild and crazy, but there's definitely something going on there. I'll know more once I get the new exhaust on.

Thanks for the info. I'm going to give him a call to see if he thinks his cam will work well for my 383 build.

Bob is a great guy. After talking with him on the phone I bought his cam two years ago for my street 383 build. It's not done yet so I can't say how well it runs in in a 383. He did tell me his cam is in many 383 engines. BTW, Bob does not grind his own cams, he has Ingle Cams grind it for him using his top secret specs.

C'mon, get that thing buttoned up so you can let me know how she runs.

Thanks for all the responses. I tried the online computer dyno to try to get an idea on how much torque vs horsepower the cams would give (ball park). All are in a good range,all will give, according to the program, 370 to 397 hp and 440 to 480 lbs torque, but the bigger 280 cam gives about 29 hp over the smaller 262 cam, and the smaller cam gives about 40 lbs of torque over the biggest. The Hughes cam and Voodoo cam are in between.

What is better for a cruiser? gain 40 lbs torque or 27 hp? Maybe a better question is about how much torque does a 383 need to put out to push the Road Runner with ease?

Thanks
Carl

Hands down, gaining the
40 ftlbs of torque! You need it for "powering thru
the gears", passing, or just plain hi-speed cruising (60+ mph or higher) on the highway!!
But idle content is important too, so is quiet
operation till you put foot in it!! I have to
agree with some of the other members on the cam
from Mr. Six Pack. Not that I am posting a plug
for him, it just makes sense!! Especially with the
3.23's!!! All I can say is do more research on his
camshafts.
