Just a few things to consider.. cams are sized according to their duration... not lift.. something in the 235° @.050" range would be a
Good starting point for what you're looking for. Just remember as said before the most critical relationship here is between cam and converter. These two have to play well together or the combo will respond poorly. Also remember LSA "lobe separation angle" will have a large impact on idle quality i.e. vacuum signal for power brakes. A "tighter" LSA [ 108° ] range will have more aggressive characteristics at idle.. (less vacuum) a "wider" LSA [ 112° ] range
will have a much smoother idle (more vacuum) better for power brakes. So as with all component selections when building a performance engine there are trade offs... it just depends on where your priorities lie...driveability vs. Max power.If it's never gonna be raced look for something that will work well
from a durability standpoint also... (no crazy aggressive ramp rates). Just remember.. if you stick a cam in it and hate it, it can be changed. It might take a few tries to nail down exactly what you want. And what you want in a performance camshaft may change in 5 years ? Who knows ? Most importantly have fun.
