Figure out what your target trap speed is and work backwards to figure out the trap RPM and then see where that puts you for the camshaft.



Quick math shows 6850 RPM at 135 with 5% slip. I'd guess 135 is pretty optimistic for this combo, and 132 would be more reasonable, and that shows 6677. The 263/270 Comp RX296R-8 is a 4000-6500 powerband, and 110 fuel is not out of the question if needed.
