Hi everyone!

Here`s my problem, I need help finding a good cam for my ride....

The car is 2800 pounds ,With a SVO crate engine with GT 40 aluminum heads.
It has now a b-303 for efi

I run the car with a carb 600 cfm vac sec performer rpm dual plane.

I plan to instal the sniper kit 150 hp nitrous later this year

The car runs now 13.0@114 mph

I have a c-4 but I`m going to switch to a T-5

The rearend in 8.8 posi 3.73 gears with SVO axle grid, 26 inch tire Hoosier DOT

I want the car to a a semi rough idle with enough vaccum for my brakes...
The compression is 9to1 I will put Motorsport roller rockers 1.6

I was thinking about the F cam or the e cam...I want to go hotter than the B
but not too much lift that I end up with piston clearance..

I read that when you use a carburator the lobe separation of the cam needs to be different than an EFI cam

I`m sure this description rings a bell somewhere So if you have a good sugestion that was track proven Than please let me know

Thanks a lot guys!

Or lunati, comp or a good reputable cam builder.
The seperation on and EFI car has a limit of what works well and what doesnt. A carb will run with any cam.

Comp has a bunch of EFI ready cams for any performance level.
