Be a beast when it is done. One question though, why that cam?

Thank you. I'll probably take it to shows eventually. I've never done shows before, but I'd like to see what its all about

Thanks! Good question. The cam was matched to the head package I purchased from patriot. I'm building a DD and I'm tuning it myself so a small / medium cam seemed like the best option and since it was recommended I went with it. My goal
of 500WHP is something I'd like to hit though, so if I undershoot, I'll probably step up the cam in the future as long as I can keep it very streetable.

Makes sense, at first I was wondering why so small. I'm curious to see what you will dyno with it in a 383ci. I had a old cam that was 222/222 .556 .556 112 for pretty much a stock 346ci LS1 . I went with a 238/242 .605 .610 112+2 for my built 347ci and made 480rwhp through an auto in 2nd gear on a mustang dyno.

Regardless, it will be fun in a rx7 lol
