What type cam do you want? Any more details on the combo? How do you get an A body to weight 3700lbs?

do your self a favor and call a cam grinder directly and give them all the specs and they can give you a cam made just for your application.. costs about the same..I use Bullit cams ..but there are many around..

Hydraulic tappet cam, baseline is a magnum 360 in a 69 barracuda with ac,power steering, two adults and two teenagers and luggage for a trip. Not a quarter mile car but a cruiser.

The only reason for the 408 was the crank was bought very well in a package deal.
