After reading through the valve spring selection thread, I thought I would start this thread to get some insight to thoughts on cam lobe selection. Based on my own most recent quest for selecting lobes, I found a few actual profiles that would fit my constraints.

For my own example, I was looking for a lobe that had at over .400 lobe lift with about 242 duration @ .050. This limited me to only a few lobe profiles that would fit those constraints(Comp Cams RT,TK, High tech 420).

So, for a given engine, RB,SB,Hemi, does anyone have a prefered profile to use as a good ballance for power and valve train durability ? More specifically limited street driving ?
