    Best California Emissions legal CAM for

    Take a look at the Steeda #18 & #19 cams. The #19 makes great power with little overlap. I would think that it would be legal. The #18 is the same cam with different timing. i.e. more overlap. It would make more torque in your combo but I am not sure if it is legal. good luck Brent
