Any one have a favorite cam for a 383 daily driver? The car is a 69 Road Runner, with auto and 323 posi. It will be used for crusing cross country, stop lite to stop lite low end speed. Looking for good torque at low and mid RPM.

This is what I have, stock 69 383, 9.5:1 CR, 3 angle valve job on stock heads, DP4 Eddie intake, 600 Holley, Headman Elite Headers, dual exhaust, x pipe, have stock 12 inch and 11 inch converter, auto, 323 posi.

I already have a 440 car so max power isn't as important as max torque in this case.

Thanks,
Carl



If you already have the stock RR cam in your 383 that should be adequate for what you want. That RR cam is perfect as is for what you want to do and then some. The rest of your combo sounds like a perfect fit. So why are you "dumbing down" to a cam with much more mild-manners ? Just don't lead foot what you have and you'll be fine. BTW, I don't get it. You have headers, x-pipe, DP4B, and you still want to dumb down to an XE256 ?! That's like installing a RV/towing cam. LOL
