Wow...this thread has been all over the place!Sounds like you are finally on the right track!When you look at your Camquest data,look at all the numbers...not just peak power output.Pick a cam that makes the most torque across the widest rpm range. Torque will move your b-body,HP comes with RPM.A cam that makes good TQ in your 383 may not sound as mean at idle and may not make the big HP numbers,but will put a smile on your face when you spank the ricer boys at the stoplight! (and have better manners in your street car)
