If you have the money, get a custom grind cam made just for your setup. I like my alphabet cam though. I run a B-303 cam wich only has .480 lift but has a nice 224 duration. I run it with speed density right now and it pulls hard after 3000. the F-303 has .512lift and 226* duration. It will have poor idle quality I've heard, but should make good power. Call up places that make custom grind cams, tell them your setup, and find out the specs of cam you should get and how much they would charge to make you one. If the specs they tell you are bout the same as the F-cam...the F-cam will most likely be cheaper.

I run a F-303 cam. its as streetable as a stock one.Idle is not bad at all,just a nice lampada-lampada...When street drive, you just drive your car as if it was stock.It will maybe bog a bit when cold at low rpm... it will stop after a fiew minute of driving.I love it!

A buddy of mine is running the X303 cam in his car right now and drives it on the street just fine. He is also still able to pass emissions in CA when he puts the cats back on.
